Grading Policy
PGCEA and PGCPS have reached an agreement on changes to the Administrative Procedure for Grading and Reporting for both Elementary and Secondary grades. PGCEA heard our members loud and clear when complaints were lodged about a change that took place over the summer in the grading policy that allowed students to receive a grade of 50% when they did no work, failed to turn in work or just had a missing grade. After sitting down with the Superintendent and expressing the opinions of our members on this issue, Dr. Hite reached agreement with PGCEA to allow a zero when a student fails to meet established deadlines, has a missing grade or simply failed to do any work.

  • The change will be implemented beginning next semester.
  • Teachers are not to go back and make any changes in previously given grades.
  • Teachers are not to change their grading methods in the current semester.

The procedure that is currently in place has to be the one on which students are given grades this semester. We do not want to confuse both parents and students by implementing a change during the marking period. Notice about the changes should be out soon.
