Focusing assessment and grading on mastery puts student learning, not compliance, at the center of our practice.
The Des Moines Public School District is proud to provide a framework for implementing K-12 standards-referenced grading practices in a large, urban district. An explanation of the process DMPS took plus a framework and timeline are found on pp. 289-294, excerpted here. Click on the book cover.
