FAQ: Report Cards

Q: Do all students receive report cards?
A: Yes.

Q: How do parents receive report cards for their children?
A: Report cards for K-12 are emailed to parents/guardians via PowerSchool. Pre-K report cards are printed and sent home in backpacks.

Q: If there is an issue with a report card, who should I contact?
A: Please contact your teacher if you see an issue with your child’s report card.

Q: When is it a good time to discuss grades with a teacher?
A: Parent-teacher conferences are offered during the school year so that parents/guardians can discuss their child’s progress, including grades, with teachers. However, we encourage regular communication between school and home. If you have any questions or concerns during the school year, please contact your child’s teacher directly through ParentSquare or email.

Q: Do students receive Progress Reports or Interim Reports during a marking period?
A: Students in grades 6-12 receive Progress Reports during each marking period. These are sent to parents/guardians from PowerSchool.

Q: Why do elementary students receive a standards-based report card?
A: The elementary report cards align with the Next Generation Learning Standards that were adopted by the NYS Education Department and provide parents with more detailed and meaningful information regarding their child’s academic and social progress.

The new report card enables parents to receive accurate information regarding their child’s growth throughout the marking period as it relates to the learning standards. The report card should help facilitate more meaningful conversations at parent/teacher conferences.

Q: What do the standards-based report cards look like for elementary students?
A: The elementary report cards include the student’s name, student ID, teacher, attendance and ratings for each of the standards that are evaluated during that marking period. There is also space for teacher comments. All elementary schools use the same format for their report cards.

Samples of each grade level’s report card are listed below:

Q: How were the standards selected for the elementary report cards?
A: The Board of Regents adopted new English Language Arts and Mathematics Learning Standards on September 11, 2017. The new standards were the result of over two years of collaborative work to ensure New York State has the best learning standards for our students. Over 130 educators and parents worked together to make recommendations and revise the standards, which reflect what students need to know, understand, and be able to do by the end of a given academic year.
