HENRICO, Va. (WTVR)–Henrico county schools could soon align with other large school systems that give letter grades based on a 10-point scale.

Right now they use a seven-point grading scale for high school and middle school students, which means 93-100 is an a, 85-92 is a B, and so on.

We reported this news earlier in the year but Henrico just made a new announcement about the Grading Practices Committee.

Now the school division is seeking your input. There are two community forums next week.

Monday, April 15, 2013 – 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Varina High School Library
7053 Messer Road
Henrico, VA 23231

Thursday, April 18, 2013 – 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Short Pump Middle School Auditorium
4701 Pouncey Tract Road
Glen Allen, VA 23059
