Synopsis:

Although schools have moved toward standards-based curriculum and instruction, grading practices and reporting systems have remained largely unchanged.

This accessible volume:- Provides a clear framework for developing standards-based report cards- Shows how to communicate with parents, students, and other stakeholders about changes- Illustrates how to achieve grading consistency without increasing teachers' workloads or violating their professional autonomyFilled with examples of standards-based report cards that can be adapted to a school's needs, this practical resource shows district and school administrators how to establish reporting practices that facilitate learning.
