Grading and Reporting

K-12 Grading and Reporting Information

Student progress is evaluated every quarter.

At the elementary level, the effort and academics are reported separately so the parents know the effort of the student as well as understanding of specific skills. Individualized comments are an important part of parent communication on the report card.

Middle and High schools report student achievement regularly through parent contacts, the progress report, and the quarterly progress reports.
