Grading

Grades in 5th through 8th grade are split into content and academic behaviors.  Students will receive a content grade that aligns with the following scale:

A:  90 – 100%

B:  80 – 89%

C:  70 – 79%

D:  60 – 69%

F:    0 – 59%

Students will receive academic behavior grades for each course in Responsibility, Organization, Attitude, and Respect (ROAR). 

• Responsibility-listens actively, participates and contributes, works well collaboratively.
• Organization-prioritizes, sets goals anticipating needs and hurdles, properly manages time and meets deadlines
• Attitude-demonstrates perseverance and persistence in pursuit of excellence
• Respect-actively involved in a way that is safe, responsible, respectful, positive and kind.

These grades will align with the following scale:

3- Proficient The student demonstrates this attribute. She or he rarely requires any prompting and often models this attribute for others.

2 Developing The student sometimes demonstrates this attribute and requires frequent reminders and support from the teacher.

1 Emerging The student seldom demonstrates this attribute and requires constant reminders and support from the teacher.

“I” Insufficient Evidence The student makes no effort in demonstrating this effort

3P’S ASSESSMENT

In 5th Grade, student work is assessed in a different way. ‘Grades’ for each unit in each subject are divided into 3 parts: Progress, Process, and Performance. We call it ‘3P’s Assessment’.

3P’s Assessment forms will be sent home at the end of each unit. If at anytime you would like to see your student’s current grades, please log into Infinite Campus or contact me.
