I am looking for information on standards based report cards—do you use letter grades or a numerical score? How would a numerical score be determined?

We have standards based. Students receive a 3 if they are working on grade level on that standard. A score of 2 if they are working towards that standard. A one means no progress. Rarely, a 4 is awarded if they are completing different work that is a grade level above. Each standard is reviewed individually at the end of the marking period, and I enter each score. We do have a mass fill of a 3 that then you can just go change the ones that are not a 3. Not every standard is scored each trimester.
We use standards based grading with a 3, 2, 1 grading. We use a platform called Teacher Ease that calculates a score at the end of each quarter.
The scores entered into Teacher Ease are 3, 2, or 1 as well as for each learning target our grade level PLC will determine what is mastery. In some cases, it is never, sometimes, always or it can look like if a student gets everything correct it is a 3, between a set of numbers it would be a 2, and less than a specific number a 1.
It really depends on what the standard. For example, the standard that says a student will produce the number that makes 10 given any number 0-9 vs. using computational fluency to add and subtract.
I hope that helps!
