Forecaster -High school students say they are frustrated with administration’s response – or lack thereof – to what they called “strong resistance” to the district’s 4-year-old proficiency-based grading system.
A survey circulated last week by the South Portland High School Student Senate, which advocates for students by representing their viewpoints to the school administration, asked students to identify a school issue where they would “like to see change.” According to Max Saffer-Meng, the senate vice president, 82 percent of the 250 students who took the survey selected “grading.”
Under the district’s system students are graded on a scale of 1-4, as opposed to the traditional 1-100 scale.
