[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] That's a strange system then. Meets should be what you expect all kids to do, so calibrated to a C. Then a kid who exceeds get a B or A, falls short gets a D or F. This system is basically saying C, B, and A all get A. Nuts.[/quote] FYI for many people coming from abroad your system seems super strange. How can a child that has learned what he was supposed to get a "C" (one notch short of a failing grade)?! Mind-boggling if you didn't grow up in the US.[/quote] It’s pretty mind-boggling if you did grow up in the US. I very much hope they don’t roll this out at all APS middle schools. It is bad enough in elementary school, but pushing it into middle school would be a dealbreaker for us.[/quote]
