Grading System; Translating 1 - 4

from the North Andover Middle School Website

The traditional A-F grading system categorizes student performance into a percent that then equates to a letter grade for each class such as science 85%  B. In a standards-based grading system essential standards are identified with supporting benchmarks that reflect student performance on each one. A student may demonstrate learning progress at a proficiency level on one essential standard, and demonstrate learning progress at an advanced level which is  exceeding the identified proficiency level of another essential standard. The standards-based system will provide students and parents more information on student progress and learning.
