Parkland School Division has been using 'comprehensive reporting', for elementary student assessment. They use three standards, rather than letter grades or marks. They are now rolling this out to Junior Highs. Several School divisions are moving to this type of assessment.
What are your thoughts? How important is a letter grade or percentage for your child and for YOU? Does it encourage deeper/further LEARNING or does it label and box kids in? Would you support this in your kids school? What is assessment intended for?
