Clarify the purpose of grades, craft a vision statement aligned with this purpose, and discover research-based strategies to implement effective grading and reporting practices. Identify policies and practices that render grading inaccurate, and understand the role grades play in students' future success and opportunities. K-12 teachers and administrators will:

Examine grading and reporting policies, and make sure they support students, parents, and other stakeholders.
