A Metro Nashville Public Schools parent is asking for a review of the district's 90/10 grade-weight policy, raising a question about how student performance is reflected in classroom grades.
Grade weighting determines the relative influence of different categories of student work on a final mark. Those calculations can affect how students and families interpret academic progress and identify areas where additional help may be needed.
MNPS serves Nashville and Davidson County, including North Nashville. Families with questions about an individual student's grades can begin with the classroom teacher to understand how assignments are categorized and how the overall grade is calculated.
