Standards-Referenced Grading Resources

Perry Community School District is moving toward standards-referenced grading. Currently, standards-referenced grading is occurring in elementary and middle school; high school will begin using standards-referenced grading during the 2018-19 school year.

Here is a glossary of terms used with standards-referenced grading that might be helpful.

Here are some additional resources to support learning about standards-referenced grading.

Iowa ASCD continues to develop curated and annotated lists of useful web resources related to and supporting standards-referenced grading. Additional web resources include competency-based education, personalized learning, project-based learning, questioning, and Understanding by Design.
AEA 267 has created sets of Iowa Core standards-based rubrics. The Iowa Core Standards-Based Rubrics were developed in an effort to assist educators in using the grade level content standards of the Iowa Core to engage in effective instruction and assessment practices. At the current time, rubrics have been developed in grades kindergarten through eighth grade in the following areas:
Reading Foundational Skills, Literature and Informational Text
