Regarding the grading structure, here is the summary I included in my last post:
Kids start getting letter grades in 3rd grade. Before that they receive a number rating between 1 and 5 (5 being the best). In kindergarten, 5's are not given. According to Mrs. Colasso, a 3 is the rating that you want your child to receive. A 3 means "the student has been introduced to the standard and is making expected progress toward mastery". She will give some 4 ratings, but they require that the child never makes any mistakes in the area rated and has 100% mastered everything about the skill.
