  • Conquering Student Grading

    Conquering Student Grading
    Jan 26 2026

    In this episode of Conquering Conversations, we dive into one of the most common questions parents ask: How is my child’s learning being measured?

    In this episode, we sit down with Renee Loewen, DCA’s Director of Educational Programming, to explore student grading and the school’s transition from traditional letter grades to proficiency-based grading. Renee explains how this approach focuses on clearly defined learning standards and skills, giving parents a more accurate and helpful picture of student progress. You’ll learn why this shift matters, how it benefits students, and what parents should look for when reviewing progress reports.

    Whether you’re new to proficiency-based grading or simply want to better understand how to better support student growth, this conversation will equip you with clarity and confidence.
