REPORT CARDS/PROGRESS REPORTS 1st and 2nd grade progress reports are published four times per year in the middle of the Marking Term. PreK and K progress reports are completed during marking terms two through four. Report Cards are published four times per year. Students in 1st and 2nd grade who have earned an E, will have the report card mailed. The final report card will be published in the week following the last student day in June. A request for a conference may be indicated on the report card by the teacher. You may request a parent/teacher conference at any time during the school year. Prekindergarten and Kindergarten Checklists use the following letter designation: PR Proficient IP In Progress ND Needs Development NY Not Yet First and Second Grades O, S, U A, B, C, D, E Special Areas, Social Habits, Work Habits ELA (Writing, grammar, conventions, phonics, word study, fluency, reading comprehension), Mathematics, Science, Social Studies FAMILY PORTAL Parents of students in grades 1 and 2 are encouraged to utilize the Family Portal online system to monitor students’ grades and attendance. Students in all grades will have their progress reports and report cards published in this platform throughout the year. Information including login and password procedures will be provided to parents of students in these grades at the start of the school year. HOMEWORK FOR ABSENCES Make-up work for student absences will be available upon their return to school. It may be possible to work with teachers directly to prepare make-up work ahead of time. All make-up work for credit must be completed in accordance with the Wicomico County Handbook found at https://handbook.wcboe.org/student/48/. PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCES Teachers are encouraged to request parent conferences as the need arises. They may do this with the report card request, or they may contact you directly. Parents should also request conferences with teachers. The best procedure for these requests is to send a note to your child’s teacher(s) for an appointment. The teacher(s) will respond to your note with an appointment time. Questions and concerns should be discussed with the teacher(s) involved. If you feel further discussion is necessary, a conference with the principal or assistant principal may be requested. This should be done, however, after you have first talked with the teacher(s).
