Report card
Posted by Michelle on Sep 26, 2008 in Hayley
In Hayley’s school, their grading scale is 4 – 1. It’s very odd but the grades go 1, 2, 3, 3* or 4. Scores of 1 or 2 indicate performance below grade level. 3 indicates performance at grade level and 3* means performance at grade level with evidence of application and 4 indicates performance above grade level. The 3 means you are right where you are supposed to be and doing fine, 3* means you did really well but 4 means WOW.
For the first time ever on a report card, Hayley got a 4!! Overall she got 4, 3*, 3, 3, and 3. We are SO proud of her. It’s been great to see her not just learn but share and get excited over things.
On the conduct/work habits (ie behavior) section – all checks. She’s normally got a few missing there, haha. And under ‘interventions’ which are extra things the school will do/offer to help her, for the first time ever there is nothing listed.
Please don’t think I’m being a braggart over this. She’s just never done this well and it took a lot of work from all of us to get to this point (mostly her of course!). We made some tough decisions about her academics a few years ago and we finally are getting some real confirmation we made the right moves.
And YES, my political science/history major self is thrilled the 4 came in social studies!
