In March of 2010, Policy IK was
revised to the new and current grading system, which essentially states as
follows:
Student's
performance is to be reported in two ways, separately:
1. Individual
academic achievement based on a variety of assessment methods and are summative
in nature;
2. Evaluation
of student behaviors and other nonacademic facts that may influence academic
achievement.
In June of 2011, IK-AR
(Administrative Rule) was revised and is the tool to implement the new grading
policy.
2010-2011:
Implement balanced grading
2011-2012: Academic
Practice (ie: formative=homework) grades may count for a maximum of 10%
of the grade. Academic
Practice is a fancier way of saying homework, but is referenced by the
district also as a "formative" assessment.
Academic Achievement (ie: summative =tests, projects, term papers, etc.) must
count for a minimum of 90% of the grade.
Academic Achievement is also known as "summative" assessments.
"Nonacademic
behaviors" (ie: late work) that could affect grade are not to exceed 10%
of the grade
2012-2013: Academic
Achievement (ie: summative=tests, projects, etc.) must count for 100% of
the grade
