This document outlines a grading rubric and scale. It provides letter grades from A-F that correspond to percentage scores. An A is 94-100%, a B is 84-86%, a C is 73-76%, a D is 63-66%, and an F is below 60%. General criteria are given for each grade level to describe expectations for completeness, quality, understanding, analysis, presentation skills, and use of sources and technology. An A demonstrates exemplary work that significantly exceeds expectations, a B meets expectations with good quality, and a C only partially meets expectations with inconsistent or superficial understanding. Lower grades indicate more incomplete or unacceptable work that does not meet expectations.
