​Grading Policy

The primary purpose of evaluation is to determine the extent to which a student has achieved success in mastering standards for each subject.

Holy Trinity School uses an online grading program (SchoolSpeak) which allows parents to monitor their student's grades at all times. Parents receive a password that allows access to their child's grades. The password will be e-mailed.

Teachers use a variety of assessments to determine a student's mastery of material learned: written assessments such as tests, essays, and quizzes, and projects and class participation. Parents are notified of students' progress through a variety of methods: packets home, graded papers, tests that require parent signature, and online grades at SchoolSpeak.

Grades 1 through 8 receive report cards at the end of each quarter. All grades receive a Progress Report once during each quarter. Progress Reports and Report Cards will be available to parents on SchoolSpeak. Parents are required to sign-off, indicating they have viewed the student's report.

TK & Kindergarten receives Pupil Development Report at the end of the 2nd and 4th quarters and a Progress Report at the end of the 1st and 3rd quarter. One copy is sent home each quarter. Parents are to sign the envelope, indicating they have seen the card and return the signed envelop to school.

An average of the Report Card grades become part of the student's permanent record and is placed on the cumulative record card.
