This resource was produced in response to a request: "What are the pros and cons of 6-week and 9-week marking periods?" In response to this request, the Southeast Comprehensive Center (SECC) queried numerous organizations by e-mail and telephone. The SECC also used several Web search engines to obtain information on school grading (marking) periods. The results are provided along with references and resources that may provide additional information on this topic.
