[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If a P is "good enough," does that mean average like a traditional letter grade C?[/b] If an ES means that they exceed the standard, what standard are they exceeding? Exceeding the average standard? That doesn't sound like aiming high. It sounds like aiming for the middle. [/quote] No. It means that they have learned what they were supposed to learn. Learning what you were supposed to learn is a good thing. If my child gets 100% of her spelling words right on her weekly spelling test, she gets a P. Could she get an ES on her spelling test? I don't know how, and, really, I don't care, because I think that 100% is good enough. If that's settling for mediocrity, then so be it.[/quote]
