The arbitrary nature that percentages and averages can carry tend to take away from the power of the communicative tool that grades can and should be. Thank you @rickwormeli2 for always advocating for grading reform. Another great read!

“Curriculum dev is the essential function of school leadership. Whether the role is carried out by a principal, an assistant principal for curriculum, a team leader, a dept head, or by leading classroom teachers, the curriculum defines all other roles in a school” (Wiles, 2009).

BEWARE of the power of the ZERO: especially when paired w/ the % scale & averaging‼️ 👉Marisol showed great growth, but that 0 at the start depressed her grade 👉Makaylah often scored proficient, but the 0s doomed her to failure 👉Steven avoided 0s & escaped w/ a C
