This accessible volume: - Provides a clear framework for developing standards-based report cards - Shows how to communicate with parents, students, and other stakeholders about changes - Illustrates how to achieve grading consistency without increasing teachers' workloads or violating their professional autonomy Filled with examples of standards-based report cards that can be adapted to a school's needs, this practical resource shows district and school administrators how to establish reporting practices that facilitate learning.
