The Board of Directors recognizes the following objectives or purposes of a system of student reporting practices:
- To inform parents of the progress made by their children.
- To bring parents into closer understanding of the work of the school and to bring the school into closer understanding of the parent’s perception.
- To record for students their growth of achievement.
- To assist students in evaluating their growth or achievement.
- To assist the student, their parents, and the school in working cooperatively for the welfare of the student.
Students and parents shall receive a periodic progress report outlining the student’s current grade in each class. Students who are at risk of receiving a failing grade or whose achievement has declined 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.
The Superintendent of Schools, with assistance of the professional staff, may develop a manual related to procedures for evaluating and reporting pupil progress to parents.
