PC19 or WC19 recommended to be used as final spring semester grades in grades 6-8 for NC students. No final semester grade would be given to elementary school students. #nced #coronavirus
Proposed grading policy says student promotion & retention remain the decision of the principal & staff. DPI recommends districts/schools only consider retention of students if the retention consideration process was already well underway prior to March 13. #nced #coronavirus
State Board of Education is scheduled to vote on this grading policy for final spring semester grades for NC students in grades K-11 on Thursday. #nced #coronavirus
Policy says students can improve their grade from March 13 through remote learning to try to get a higher numerical mark. Many districts aren’t grading remote learning assignments though so unclear if students can really raise their marks.
