Students may not be the only ones getting a letter grade in Delaware.
The state Department of Education is looking at giving grades to schools as way to rank them.
Jay Owens, a member of the Academic Framework Working Group, said parents want to know how their school is doing in comparison to other schools.
A survey sent to 65-hundred parents, teachers and students found that a majority indicated they wanted a report card system for schools.
Owens, who is also director of compliance and accountability in the Indian River School District, told WBOC that he believes the letter grade would simplify such rankings but adds now the group must come up with what is included the evaluations.
