Grading reform is one of the most positive and impactful changes we can make for student learning and success.  However, it’s often met with resistance and misconceptions that can challenge even the most committed school leaders.

In this webinar, an assessment and grading expert with over 20 years of experience will discuss two key challenges every school leader will encounter in their career and share strategies to proactively avoid or effectively address each situation.

You’ll leave with a wealth of actionable insights to tackle these common assessment and grading misconceptions:
“Can’t I just take someone else’s priority standards and learning targets?” Learn why the process is just as important as the product.
“My kids don’t care about the test!” Learn how fostering a positive attitude toward a content domain can positively impact student achievement.

Have you faced challenges while leading your school through assessment and grading reform? Submit your questions when registering, and we’ll aim to address them during the webinar.
