July 11, 2016 at 5:00 PM - GMSD Work Session

Note the following changes/revisions in the policy:

• Page 1 # 4 and Page 3 #2:  Both of them are removing the maximum number of grades stipulation for K-5 and for 6-12
• Page 5:  Pursuant to Public Chapter No. 957 and Senate Bill No. 1831 effective July 1, 2016, statewide Dual Credit (DC) courses must count as 3/4 point quality point, so we had to edit the grading policy from 1 quality point back to 3/4.  

 Also attached is the state Uniform Grading Policy, PC0957 document, and Legislative Update Webinar (see page 34).  Here is the link pertaining to the new law:  http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/Billinfo/default.aspx?BillNumber=SB1831&ga=109
