On-line Parent Portal

The district maintains a secure parent portal integrated with its student information

            ● Attendance
       PreK-5:
            ● Homework assignments (posted daily) and completion data (posted
               weekly).
            ● Universal Screen/Benchmark Assessment results (each trimester teachers
               will enter results when assessments have been scored).
       Grades 6-12:
            ● Assignments
            ● Grades on assignments
            ● Quiz and test grades
            ● Project grades
            ● In all subject areas a minimum of one graded assignment will be posted
               every two weeks.

Report Card

Written reports on student progress will be issued to parents every marking period. The
reporting dates will be determined annually and placed on the school calendar. Parents
will be advised no later than March 1​st​ of a student’s potential failure and the possibility
of having to repeat a grade or a course.

Report cards should reflect the educational growth of the student in relationship to
each student’s conduct/citizenship, effort, and achievement, in relationship to
standards for his/her age and grade.

Teachers also will report on student progress at regularly-scheduled parent conferences.
