Join us for an inspiring, practical look into one California school’s multi-year shift toward standards-based grading. In this interactive webinar, a panel of educators will share hard-won lessons, honest reflections, and real strategies from their journey.

You’ll leave with insights on:

  • Realistic Timelines – How to roll out changes across multiple years without overwhelming staff or students.
  • Authentic Assessments – How thoughtful grading can set students up for success beyond this year.
  • Intentional Leadership – How forward-thinking leaders drive progress and focus on achievable steps.
