Join this webinar to learn from four school leaders who have guided their communities through a shift in grading practices and are successfully implementing standards-based grading.

During this panel discussion, you’ll hear practical insights and real-world examples from each leader as we explore the following topics:

  • Why schools across the country are shifting their grading approach and the different terms you may hear including standards-based, mastery-based, and competency-based grading
  • How school leaders can support educators as they align curriculum and assessments with standards
  • Consistency and fairness in grading, including the importance of assessing nonacademic skills
  • Communication of grading policies with students and family
  • Potential roadblocks you may encounter and plans to address them effectively

Whether you’re just starting your journey with standards-based grading or bringing a wealth of experience, we invite you to join the conversation.
