Grading Framework Decision Template & Teacher Cohort Program
A downloadable, interactive Excel/Google Sheets template that walks a school through a decision tree to identify which grading framework (norm-referenced, standards-based, mastery-based, etc.) best fits their context, then generates a customized implementation roadmap. Paired with a 6-week asynchronous cohort program (2 hours/week) where 15–25 teachers from different schools work through the framework, share implementation challenges, and receive feedback from a facilitator. Teachers pay individually; schools can sponsor a cohort.

Value Proposition
The template removes the guesswork by asking the right diagnostic questions (What's your school's mission? What's your student population? Do you use standards-based report cards?), then recommends a framework and provides a step-by-step rollout plan. The cohort adds peer learning and accountability—teachers see how others in similar contexts are implementing, reducing isolation and resistance.
Target Audience
Individual teachers, department heads, and small schools (under 100 teachers) seeking clarity on grading approaches without hiring a consultant. Also: teacher professional learning communities and education nonprofits running teacher development programs.

Educators struggle to understand and implement grading systems with predetermined grade distributionsTeachers and academic administrators are confused about why grading systems use predetermined percentage distributions (e.g., 10% A's, 20% B's) and how to apply them fairly. Current solutions lack clear guidance on the pedagogical purpose and practical implementation of these systems, leaving educators uncertain whether they're using the right approach for student assessment.
