Grade Reporting
Report Cards
The scholastic year is divided into two semesters, each of which is composed of two quarter grading periods. At the end of each quarter and semester, the student's report card is emailed home.
Progress Reports/PowerSchool
Student academic progress can be monitored by parents/students utilizing the PowerSchool student information system. To access PowerSchool, please contact the Front Office for a username and password. It is the responsibility of the parents/students to regularly monitor grades. Teachers are strongly encouraged (but not required) to notify parents by phone or email when a student's grade is at a "D" or an "F" within three weeks of the end of the grading period.
Protocol for Contesting Grades
When students or parents are concerned about the circumstances in which a particular grade was given, the following procedures should be followed:
- First, talk directly to the teacher involved.
- Second, if talking to the teacher does not clarify the situation to the student's or parent's satisfaction, contact the student's counselor.
- Third, if communicating with the counselor does not clarify the situation to the student's or parent's satisfaction, contact the Assistant Principal of Curriculum and Instruction.
- Fourth, if speaking with the Assistant Principal does not clarify the situation, contact the Principal.
Protocol for Appealing a Course Grade
In order to appeal a grade, students must contact the Assistant Principal of Curriculum and Instruction within two weeks of receiving their Report Cards.
