EXCELLENCE THROUGH EFFORT

Reporting process

FEEDBACK

We believe that feedback is most effective when it:

  • KIND –  Lifts the child up
  • HELPFUL – Clearly state areas of strength and areas yet to be developed?
  • SPECIFIC – Indicates to a parent whether their child is Emerging, Developing, Proficient, or Extending (BC Performance Standards)

SUBJECTS

  1. Arts Education
  2. English Language Arts
  3. Mathematics
  4. Physical and Health Education,
  5. Science
  6. Social Studies
  7. Supporting Emerging Aboriginal Stewards (SEAS)

K4 to GRADE 7 REPORTS

K4 to grade 7 students will receive a report card three times a year (in December, March, and June). 

Reports for primary students in K4 to grade 7 include written comments about: 

  1. What the student is able to do, 
  2. Areas requiring further attention, 
  3. Ways of supporting the student in his/her learning and an overall statement of progress. 

Throughout the year, communication between school and teacher is encouraged through informal parent/teacher conversations and more formal parent/teacher conferences and/or specially-arranged meetings. 

GRADE 8 to 12 REPORTS

Grade 8 to 12 students will receive a report card two times a year (in January and June). 

Formal reports for students in grades 9 to 12 use letter grades and percentages. In addition, there will be interim reporting periods for high school students. Parents will be informed of potential failure in a course during the interim reporting periods. Students must meet all graduation requirements and successfully complete a minimum of 80 credits of coursework to complete grade 12 and graduate from school.

Promotion through school grades should be continuous; retaining (or holding students back) is rare. Grade promotions or retaining a student in a grade involves team consultations between teachers, parents and school administration.

For K4 to grade 12 students, we will host one parent-teacher conference (in October) and a student-led conference (in April).
