<p>Renaissance’s post illustrates my point - in that school’s system, “4” just meant that homework was completed. In our school, “4” means doing even more than the teacher expected, at least in most classrooms. In neither case was a 4 equivalent to an A. </p>
<p>In our district, I’d say a “3” was more like a high C or low B! The gap between 4 and 3 was huge.</p>
