Grades: Policy • FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) enforced by FPCO (Family Policy Compliance Office) • Test scores and grades may be posted if the identifier used by the school is known only to the student and teacher. • Having students grade each others’ tests is allowable. While the U.S. Supreme Court made it clear they do not like this idea, it was not banned.

  5. Grades: Considerations and Resources • Teachers should assign numbers to students as a way of posting grades. • When allowing students to grade each others’ work, be consistent in procedure and always collect work to enter scores. • http://www.iowa.gov/educate/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=971:posting-grades&catid=411:legal-lessons&Itemid=2656
