Why Standards-based Grading?
 
“The consequence for a student who 
fails to meet a standard 
is not a low grade
but rather the opportunity—indeed, the requirement—to 
resubmit his or her
work
."
                    -- Douglas Reeves
"Grades must be 
meaningful
, and they are meaningful only when they are 
based
on
 and provide information about achievement of the 
learning goals
.”
   
-- Ken O’Connor
“A grade is supposed to provide an 
accurate
, undiluted 
indicator
 of a student’s
mastery of learning standards
.”

The school emphasizes the importance of meaningful grades that reflect achievement of learning goals, providing students with opportunities to resubmit work to meet standards. The SBG committee, staff development initiatives, and emphasis on learner qualities like self-directed learning and integrity contribute to a holistic approach to education at Richmond Middle School.
