The purpose of this rule is to establish minimal requirements for those school districts and charter schools that seek to permit changes to a student's final course grades, and to require that school districts and charter schools adopt written policies for any change to a student's grade. While a change in a final course grade should be the exception and not the rule once a classroom teacher has issued a final course grade, the enactment of written policies coupled with consistent application of those policies should result in the changing of grades only when warranted and should lead to increased public confidence in the process.
