K-12 Philosophy on Grading During School Closure 2020

• Students will engage in remediation and new learning that aligns with essential standards for the remainder of the academic school year.
• Assignments will be graded and entered in MiStar to ensure accountability.  
• Teachers will continue to provide feedback to students on his/her performance.
• Teachers will practice flexibility based on their knowledge of the student/family and have the ability to not count an assignment(s) for a student depending on his/her circumstances.
• Work completed prior to April 20th that demonstrates a student’s mastery of learning will count toward his/her grade.

Elementary Grading Criteria – COVID-19 School Shutdown

For the current marking period:

Students receive feedback on weekly assignments in the form of narrative comments. 

• Meeting:  regularly submitted work and attended check-ins
  • Accuracy of work assessed on standards/graded/recorded in MiStar
  • High participation
• Progressing:  Submitted most assignments and attended some of the check-ins
• Limited Participation:  with one of the following explanations
  • Rarely or did not submit work (may be required to attend summer school)
  • Rarely attended check-in sessions (may be required to attend summer school)
  • Family hardship during the time of instruction (summer support offered)
