Is this really what state lawmakers should concern themselves with?
Only now do I see the "editor's note": "This new scale applies to the grades schools receive based on performance. It would not change the scale used to grade students." Whew.
Here's the subtitle of the article: "A new bill under consideration would adjust the current grading scale, making a score of 85 an A and a score of 70 a B." You can see why I as a teacher might be concerned!
Still, why is the state lowering the standards for evaluating its schools? Were they too high/unrealistic, or were too many schools scoring poorly?
