Policy 505.01: Student Progress Reports and Conferences	Status: ADOPTED
Original Adopted Date: 4/11/1994 | Last Reviewed Date: 09/09/2024

 

Students will receive a progress report at the end of each grading period.  Students, who are doing poorly, and their parents, are 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.

Parent-teacher conferences will be held each semester at the elementary and middle school to keep parents informed.  High school conferences are not individually scheduled. 

Parents, teachers, or principals may request a conference for students in grades kindergarten through twelve in addition to the scheduled conference time.  Parents and students are encouraged to discuss the student's progress or other matters with the student's teacher.
 

NOTE:  This is a mandatory policy.  The second paragraph should be written to reflect the school district's practice.
