The Curriculum and Instruction Division of the District shall devise a system to report student progress to parents/guardians. RULE: See Administrative Rule IKA (Grading Systems) for guidelines regarding the changing of a student’s grade.
A. ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: Student progress in the elementary schools shall be reported as follows: 1. Progress updates shall be issued to parents/guardians after 4.5 weeks of each quarter. 2. Progress reports describing the student's progress in grades K-5 shall be issued to parents/guardians at the end of each nine-week period. 3. Parent-teacher conferences shall be scheduled with parents/guardians of all elementary students (Administrative Rule IDB [Released Time: Minimum Day, Early Release and Conference Week]). 4. It shall be the responsibility of teachers to notify parents/guardians of students' scholastic deficiencies. 5. Reports indicating pupil placement for the next school year will be mailed to parents/guardians after the close of each school year if a stamped, self-addressed envelope is provided by the parent/guardian, or they may be picked up at the main office of each school.
B. MIDDLE SCHOOL: 1. Progress updates shall be issued to parents/guardians after 4.5 weeks of each quarter. 2. Progress reports describing the student's progress in grades 6-8 shall be issued to parents/guardians at the end of each nine-week period. 3. While progress reports shall give the mid-quarter progress update and the end-of- quarter report, only the end-of-quarter report shall be posted on the cumulative record. 4. It shall be the responsibility of teachers to notify parents/guardians of students' scholastic deficiencies. These may include deficiencies on progress reports as well as deficiencies related to the continuation criteria for advanced content courses. 5. Schools should make efforts to inform parents/guardians/students when the student is in danger of failing a course. Where possible, a deficiency notice (academic alert/progress update) should precede a failing grade by a minimum of ten school days. 6. Report cards may be mailed to parents/guardians after the close of each school year if a stamped envelope is provided by the parent/guardian, or they may be picked up in the main office of each school.
C. HIGH SCHOOL: 1. Grades of students in grades 9-12 shall be reported to parents/guardians at six- weeks intervals and when the final course grade is given at the close of the semester. 2. Schools should make efforts to inform parents/guardians/students when the student is in danger of failing a course. Where possible, a deficiency notice (academic alert/progress update) should precede a failing grade by a minimum of ten school days. 3. Progress reports may be mailed to parents/guardians after the close of each school year if a stamped envelope is provided by the parent/guardian, or they may be picked up in the main office of each school.
