Doug Reeves:

I’ve been to enough parent meetings on this subject to know that mutual respect and understanding work far better than expert pronouncements. Both sides in this debate love kids and want the best for them. Let’s dial back the rhetorical heat and seek some common ground.

Great points about standards-based grading and how to describe and discuss it civilly. I love his point about reaching out with relationships to help parents understand it.
