[quote=Anonymous]Yes, they've absolutely gone down. They are now a much better representation of what kids actually know. My super hard working kids who just never were able to master concepts before were still able to brute force their way to an A, even if they never understood all the concepts. Now they have to actually demonstrate knowledge because formative really only shifts your grade up or down half a letter. Many of the kids who would have had As under the old system have B+s now, because they get Bs on all assessments but do all their work.[/quote]
