Additional Info
In the "resources" section, you will see links to seven documents referencing the new 10-point grading scale NC high schools are using. 

Use information from at least three of the sources to write a clear and well-developed essay that evaluates whether or not high schools should move to the 10-point grading scale. Should the move be made? And if so, what factors should be considered. Use the sources to develop your argument and explain the reasoning for it. 

Avoid merely summarizing the sources. Indicate clearly which sources you are drawing from, whether through direct quotation, paraphrase, or summary. You may cite the sources as Source A, Source B, etc., by using the author's name, or the name of the document.
