End of Tri 1 - Report Cards

 

It's hard to believe that it's already November, let alone time to start thinking about report cards.  I wanted to share a few reminders as you start thinking about sharing your students' progress with their families.

Grade Mark Legend - reminder

We've had a few adjustments with assessments, so I will touch on this at our staff meeting on Thursday (Nov. 9) - please bring any questions!

Report Card Rubrics - Here is a link to a document with each grade level's Report Card Rubrics, which have been recently updated.

Report Card Timeline - Here's a link to the report card timeline - with report cards going home December 1st.

BAS Levels:

The district is not requiring K-2 to enter BAS levels into DnA, and is giving the buildings the flexibility to decide for 3-5.  The Willow Leadership Team felt that teachers had enough information, as well as building level data for data roll throughs, so we have decided that 3-5 teachers DO NOT need to enter levels into DnA.  While our K-2 teachers are focusing a lot on phonics with their new curriculum, our intermediate teachers are still expected to meet with small groups, and most are still using leveled texts for instruction.  It is my understanding that this instruciton, as well as whole group lessons, will give teachers what they need to complete their report cards for each student.  Please let me know if you have any questions.

Please let me know if you have any questions!
