Abstract: An appreciation of values stands close to the top in any list of basic skills. Most teachers, no matter what reporting system they use, will insist that the important thing is Jane's own growth—not how Jane stands in comparison with Jim or Jean or Sally. But how are youngsters going to acquire this viewpoint, when they are sent home each month with nothing but A-B-C report cards? Such a system is helping children to grow up with an unfortunate even a defeatist—sense of values. A realistic account of the problems that go with making a change in reporting practices and the satisfactions that come from observing development of children's values is presented here by Mildred Sheppard, fifth-grade teacher in West End School, Montgomery, Ala.
