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. Additional conferences may be requested by either parent or teacher and scheduled as needed. Teachers are not expected to hold conferences with parents without advance notice. Parents who wish to schedule a conference with a teacher may do so by sending a request in the weekly folder or by leaving a message in the main office indicating the best time and way to be reached. B. Provides a forum for constructive communication between parents, teachers, administrators, and community members for meeting challenges posed by the school.
