Alternatives to ABC Grades.
Warner, Thomas R.
The best reporting procedure for any school or school district can be determined only after careful study of the needs and philosophy of the educational program. Whatever the choice of evaluation process, it should be focused on the individual rather than on a group, be skill- or criterion-based, be adaptable on a multi-grade-level range, be reasonable rather than rigid in time requirements, identify skill proficiencies, identify the student's skill deficiencies, identify the student's skill position, and be flexible enough to provide social, behavioral, and personal aspects relative to the student's overall growth and learning. The system adopted by the St. Bernard Parish School System meets these requirements while dealing with an individualized, continuous progress plan in the elementary schools and a high school curriculum in which each subject area has been sequentially designed into courses that include performance objectives and activities.
