To *get* a grade (on an exam, etc.)
In English, you could say:
- I got an A on the exam. - I earned an A on the exam. En español, ¿como se diría eso? - Logré una A en el examen. - Obtuve una A en el examen. ?????? ¿Cuáles otras palabras se puede usar? ¿Ganar? ¿Alcanzar? ¡Gracias!

Gracias. ¿Son "ganar" y/o "alcanzar" correctas también?

En España las notas solían ser del 0 al 10, aunque en la actualidad ya no sé...
"Saqué un 10 en el examen de literatura". Yo nunca usaría "ganar" ni "alcanzar". Quizá "conseguir".

I find that the teachers here stress using the word "earn", so as to put the onus on the student for his or her work. For example, a student might say: "the teacher gave me a C." But the teacher would remind the student that the C was earned.
In Spanish, is there any of this type of tension? Do teachers "dar" grades? Is there any way to stress that the student is receiving the grade that they have crafted for themselves?

Correct, teacher will give a grade, sometimes, and that can construed positively or negatively.
So, in that context you can used earn, but always talking about the effort out in to get that grade.
