Illinois school district may pilot new report cards next fall |
||
 For instance, the District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) is just one school district that plans to introduce new CCSS-aligned report cards, according to the DCPS website. Rather than the traditional A through F grading system, parents may see an "S" for secure, or a "B" for beginning. In Illinois, members of the Danville School District No. 118 school board have a decision to make as to whether or not they will pilot new Common Core-based report cards during the 2012-2013 academic year, The News-Gazette reported. If approved, kindergartners through second-graders who attend class in the District would receive revised report cards. Rather than a letter, these students would receive a number between one and four, according to the news source. A four would be the highest, and means that students have exceeded a Standard. Any pupils who receive a one are performing below what is expected of them. |
