Purpose
To effectively partner with parents/guardians and meet local reporting needs, the archdiocesan report card is the official vehicle to report student academic progress as well as work habits and behavior to parents/guardians.
The purpose of report cards is to effectively communicate student progress in achieving learning goals. The marks for content area subjects should reflect student mastery of grade-level standards. Work habits, including homework completion and behavior, should be recorded separately in their respective sections.
Guidelines
Report cards must include a legend that clearly explains the criteria applied for each grade. Report cards may not include information that identifies students as having a disability. Under STEP/MTSS Meeting and Documentation," see Report Cards and Cumulative Records for additional guidelines for students with special needs.
Gradelink
Parents have access to their child’s grades through Gradelink Student Information System. Parents are advised to check Gradelink and contact their child’s teacher if they have any questions or concerns before report cards are distributed.
Report Cards
Report cards are distributed on the trimester system (fall, winter, and spring). Each trimester is approximately 12-13 weeks. If a student is absent ten or more days during a trimester, he/she may not receive a report card for that trimester.
If a student does not complete the assigned work due to absence or other reasons, the term 'incomplete' may be entered on the report card. This will be changed to a letter grade when work is completed in the time designated by the teacher.
