Students shall receive a progress report at the end of each nine (9) week grading period. Students, who are doing poorly, and their parents, shall be 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 about students’ progress will be held to keep the parents informed. Parent-teacher conferences are held at designated times in the school year. The conferences at the high school are not on any individually scheduled basis. Parents may see any of the staff members during those conference periods.
Parents, teachers, or principals may request a conference for students in grades kindergarten (K) through six (6) at any time if they feel the circumstances warrant it. Students are encouraged to discuss the student’s progress or other matters with the student’s teacher and/or any other appropriate staff members.
