[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 256065, member: 1169"] I refuse to use grades as any measure of progress. My school district is so use to this that when a new staff person tried to point out that I should be happy because Kanga was getting straight As. I inhaled in preparation for tearing her head off and the sped director quickly interrupted with "JJJ doesn't use grades to measure progress. We use work samples for her children." Sadly, she didn't take the hint and I had to explain it to her in very simple terms that giving a 4th grader who couldn't read a paragraph an A in reading was useless in telling anyone what progress she had made. Ask for work samples and test results. Ignore the grades. [/QUOTE]
