    This rubric evaluates analytical essays on four criteria: thesis statement and introduction/conclusion; examples, evidence, and content; organization and structure; and writing mechanics and style. For each criterion, it provides descriptors to assess performance at four levels - distinguished (***), proficient (**), basic (*), and below basic. For a distinguished score, the thesis must completely and clearly answer the question, and the introduction/conclusion must be clear, complete, and logically organized. Proficient requires a completely clear thesis and summary introduction, while basic may have a weak thesis or introduction. Below basic would have an unclear or missing thesis.
