Some Texas districts yet to change grading policies
A new state law aims to stop school district policies that bar teachers from giving students grades lower than a 50, a 60 or even a 70. But with less than a week before fall classes begin, some districts aren't ready to change their policies. Dallas ISD officials say that because the law doesn't specifically mention report card grades, district policy remains that teachers may not assign a grade lower than a 50 on six-week grades.
