We have come to a consensus. We have decided, a change must be made. The standards grading system, the one prevalent in Elementry school and Middle school, and slowly integrating itself to highschool, is confusing and not user friendly. For Elementary it can make sense, Skills assesed there fit in 3 different sections, but We need letter grades for our GPA in highschool and to get used to it in middleschool, and the translation between standards grades and letter grades is not a perfect fit. This is why, I ask you, dear reader, sign this petition.


FYI, the link name was a typo.

The momentum is undeniable now. The district cannot ignore how many of us see this system as broken.

I don't know why we have standard grades. They can really pressure people.
