Grading and Reporting

Grading and Reporting Leadership Team

The Southeast Polk Grading and Reporting Leadership Team met last week to finalize the action plan for the 2019-2020 school year.  There was much enthusiasm and momentum for the work that is being done to support standards-based learning.  There are 5 work groups in this committee--Assessment and Proficiency Scales, Behavior Reporting, Communication, Feedback, and Letter Grades and Reporting.  Each work group proposed actions for the upcoming year based on feedback from our professional development last June.  Below are two links that will provide more information on this work. The first link is to a Google Site that houses all of the work and documents of this leadership team. The second link is the action plan for this school year. 

A big thank you to all members of this leadership team for engaging in this important work. Work groups will be meeting very soon to move forward on proposed actions, but there is still time to join the leadership team if you are interested.  Please let me know by completing this form.

Grading and Reporting FAQ's

You spoke and we listened!  There was feedback from the elementary teams that you would prefer to use numbers rather than symbols to report out on learner behaviors.  We have revised the table at the top of the report card to better reflect this to parents.  This is an example for grades 3-5.

More information will be shared at your grade level meeting on Monday, but we wanted to give you an update on this feedback.

All teachers may continue to provide feedback through the Standards-Based Learning Question form.  To submit a question or feedback, please click on the link below.  To see the responses to all questions, you may click on the response link.
