Wisconsin School District Eliminates A-F Grading in Favor of a 'Kinder' System

[Traveller]

A school district in Madison, Wisconsin, has made the controversial decision to abandon the common “A to F” grading system based in favor of a system that is “kinder” to students. Now, top students will be graded as “exceeding” while failing students will be “emerging.”

Exceeding – Student consistently exceeds grade-level expectations for the end of the year.

Meeting – Student consistently meets grade-level expectations for the end of the year.

Developing – Student is developing understanding and is approaching grade-level expectations for the end of the year.

Emerging – Student begins to show initial understanding of grade-level expectations for the end of the year.

And I'm sure everyone gets a participation trophy. No wonder so many kids these days are growing up to be whiny, perpetually offended SJW wimps.
