505.1 Student Progress Reports and Conferences

Code No. 505.1

STUDENT PROGRESS REPORTS AND CONFERENCES

 

Students in grades nine (9) through twelve (12) shall receive a progress report at the end of each nine (9) week grading period.  Students who are doing poorly, and their parents, shall be notified prior to the end of the semester in order to have an opportunity to improve their grade.  The Board encourages the notification of students who have made marked improvement prior to the end of the semester. 

Students in preschool through grade eight (8) shall receive a standards-based progress report at the end of each twelve (12) week reporting period. Students who are performing below grade level expectations, and their parents, shall be notified of non-proficiency and gap-closing strategies and interventions.

Parent-teacher conferences about students' progress will be held to keep the parents informed.  Parent-teacher conferences are held at least two times per year. 

Parents, teachers, or principals may request a conference for students at any time if they feel the circumstances warrant it.  Students are encouraged to discuss their progress or other matters with their teachers.
