Grading System
Formative (daily) work:


  • I check student work/behavior/attitudes daily to form my instruction


Summative (final) assessments:


  • The rubric found on the district report card is below.   It does not correspond to letter grades (A, B, etc.). The following system is used:




        S = Secure: The student demonstrates mastery of this topic and applies it independently.


        D = Developing: The student demonstrates inconsistent mastery of this topic.


        B = Beginning: The student demonstrates an introductory level of mastery of this topic.


        N/A = Not Assessed
