The Board of Education recognizes that a system of grading student achievement can help the student, teachers, and parents to assess better how well the student is achieving the goals of the District's program.

Such grades shall indicate the student's progress against both their own potential for achievement and the achievements of others in their class as appropriate to the grade level and subject matter.

The Superintendent shall develop administrative guidelines.

The grading system should be understood by the students and subject to continual review by staff, students, parents, and when appropriate, the participating local district. Revisions shall be made only when such changes will assure a clearer, more valid, or more reliable system of grading.

Final decision on any grade shall be the responsibility of the Secondary Administrator.
