Grading Policy

Your child will be assessed continually throughout the school year.  As teachers, we take a great deal of time and care in getting to know each of our students.  We use the assessments to identify areas of strength and areas of potential growth in each child. As we assess our students, we use the following district guidelines: CVSD Grading Scale (PDF)
