The system, announced during the 2021-22 school year, does not include 0-49.9 percentiles for students
A YouTube video posted by Sunrise Park Middle School in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, details a new grading scale that lacks the letter "F."
The system, announced during the 2021-22 school year, does not include 0-49.9 percentiles for students.
"Our whole intent is to ensure that grades focus on the process of learning," Principal Christina Pierre said in the video. "Therefore, grades will not include behaviors, attitude, tardiness to class, whether the assignment was turned in late or on time. There's other ways that we can communicate those things to parents."
Associate Principal Norman Bell went on to elaborate that students are encouraged to retake/revise tests, quizzes, papers, projects and have a 10-day window to do so from the date the grade is posted.
Sunrise Park Middle School serves students in grades sixth through eighth in the White Bear Lake Area Schools, ISD 624. It is located in a suburb of St. Paul.
Fox News reached out to the district to see if the grading scale would be implemented at middle schools district wide, which only includes one additional campus, but has yet to hear back.

The school website discussing the award details how the district conducted an "equity audit," which showed grading disparities among students of color.

So are they saying blacks are too stupid to earn good grades?
How stupid does one have to be to get an F in middle school?
And how long before White Bear Lake is no longer a name of the school, as well as the city?
How much more insulting to blacks can they be? They are actually indicating that they believe blacks to be inferior simply because they are black? This is what racism looks like and the progressives have always been the raciest, ALWAYS.
How stupid? F-ing stupid.

I think they should also do away with the “B” grade, wouldn’t want so bipoc loser to get triggered or feel threatened.
So if you fail the first time on a test you can just retake it......LOL. That’ll work. HA!
I thought it was bad when everyone got a “Participant” prize.......now nobody fails.
Go Libtards Go!
“Therefore, grades will not include behaviors, attitude, tardiness to class, whether the assignment was turned in late or on time”
Why even go to school...Get your “D” grades and move on to the next year...every year...
Yes they are certainly stating just that....wait until the Haitians and Afghans are the majority in a class.
What do YOU say?
The child may think they are royalty and the rules do not apply to them because they are “special”.
Insanity.
