It will also include the weekly report sheet, which is an informal report from each of the student s teachers. This report is not a part of the student s permanent record but is intended to target identified needs on a weekly basis. This document must be signed and returned in the folder on the following day. Homeroom teachers and Department Heads will send newsletters home in the weekly folders on a monthly basis to keep parents abreast of class news. Report cards are sent home at the end of each 9-week quarter to record student progress throughout the year.
Grades assigned on the report card become a part of the student s official academic record.
In addition, an interim report is sent home midway through each grading period. This report does not become a part of the student s academic record but is intended to keep parents abreast of their child s progress in order to target identified needs before the quarterly report card is issued. Both report card envelopes and interim reports must be signed and returned the day following receipt. Signing indicates that the parent has seen the report. This is so the parents and teachers may work together to target identified needs before the official report card is issued.
