    EVALUATION OF STUDENT PROGRESS

    Policy Code:

    3400

    An evaluation system of students' academic performance is necessary to help ensure that all
    students are succeeding within the framework of the educational goals and objectives of the
    board. The board believes that the formal issuance of student evaluations on a regular basis
    promotes continuous assessment of a student's performance; informs the student, his or her
    parents or guardians, and the school counselor about the student's performance and progress; and
    provides a system of notice that allows intervention strategies to be implemented if necessary to
    improve the student's performance. The board encourages teachers and principals to pursue
    innovative methods of evaluating progress.
    The superintendent or designee shall establish an evaluation system for assessing an individual
    student's academic achievement and progress relative to benchmarks set for students at that
    instructional level. Students in grades K through 12 will be issued report cards. In grading
    students, the following standards will apply:

    academic grades should not be based on student attitude or conduct;

    in averaging grades, the next highest whole number should be given the student when the
    grade is one-half or more;

    the principal has the right to change a grade if he/she believes that the grade provided
    does not accurately reflect the students work, but should not do so without conferring
    with the teacher except in the most extenuating circumstances.

    The evaluation system should provide for regular communication with parents so that they may
    be informed and involved in their child's education. The reports issued to parents shall be clear,
    concise and accurate. Teachers should provide meaningful comments on reports to parents when
    possible. Teachers shall request conferences with parents when the child is not performing at
    satisfactory level. Teachers shall comply with policy 3405, Students At-Risk of Academic
    Failure.
    Teachers shall evaluate student performance and keep accurate records in order to substantiate a
    grade or assessment given in a course. Teachers shall offer sufficient tests, assignments and
    written work to substantiate the grade given to each student. Students in grades K through 12
    will be provided progress reports and report cards for each grading period. Teachers will record
    a minimum of two work samples per week in a grading period, per subject.
