Grade Level Grading and Expectations

All Co-Curricular classes have the same expectations for the students at Blanton Elementary.

We expect all Noble Knights to:

Come Prepared (with materials or equipment)

Be Ready to Learn

Follow the Noble Knights Creed.

ALL Noble Knights will need to wear tennis shoes each and every time they come to the gym. This is not only for the safety of the student, but also for the safety of all students in the classroom.

All special areas classes (PE, Art, Music) will be using a uniform grading system this year for grades K-5. This may look different from what you have seen in the past. All DISD schools have switched to this grading system. Below is a breakdown of what the grading system means.

3

Consistently demonstrates proficient understanding and applies skills independently with minimal teacher support.

2

Demonstrates initial stages of understanding; applies skills but requires teacher intervention and reinforcement.

1

Demonstrates a lack of understanding; difficulty accomplishing grade level tasks; re-teaching consistently required.
