Report Card Question

Anonymous wrote:OP, in high school, you really should ask your son what happened with his grade before emailing the teacher. He should know. If he says he does not, then have HIM email the teacher (watch him do it if you must). Its important for kids to learn how to self advocate at this age. Teachers shouldn't have to deal with parent emails every time a child gets a lower grade.

I agree with this. But if this is really a problem of the teacher grading everything at the very end of the quarter, then I'd also email the teacher, even if just with a polite request for an explanation of what happened. This is really irresponsible behavior (if the grading was enough to take a kid from an A to a C in the last week or two of the semester/after semester was over. And they need to at least get a polite head's up about how disruptive it is.

How do I see this? Where do I look so that I know that all assignments have not been graded?

In parentVue, under grades. But at times teachers dont post the assignments or the grades till much later. What grade is your child?
Go to parentVue->grades-> select mp2 from the drop down

Thank you for this. I didn’t know you could go back and see previous marking periods. Now I’m even more confused. He has 0 missing assignments, a 98.95%, and a C.

I think the C is for Consistently participating in class. Not a letter grade for the course.

This is correct. He has an A for the class, the C is for consistent. It means he’s a great student. Read the report card thoroughly. Look at the key/legend on the back. Well done to your child!

I'm hoping you are correct. The line reads:

Grade= C
P* = O
AC* = C

Something is wrong then. You can’t get 98.95% and a C. Call the teacher or the school to find out what’s going on.

I don’t see any P* or AC* categories. This is a high school report card? It are you looking at something else? Are you looking at the document on ParentVue or something your kid bought home from school? Is it even for the right kid? None of this is adding up.

Following up, those categories are middle school report card categories. Are you sure this is a current report card for your 9th grader?

Now I may have a bigger issue then. I think I can safely say that at this point it's okay for me to step in and work with guidance to figure out what's going on.

Are the school name and the grade level correct at the l top of the report card?

Yes. Interestingly, only the class in question has the P* and AC* entries. I emailed the teacher earlier. Hopefully he will get back to me this afternoon. I'll wait to see what he says before moving on to the guidance counselor.

That sounds right to me.

At the top of my 9th grader’s report card it says “report to parents on student progress grades 9-12”. For my middle schoolers which is in a different format which includes the P and AC columns it says the same thing but “grades 6-8”. Which does yours say?

This says your child's grade is a C
Participation - often
Assignment completion - consistently

This is also a middle school report card.

OP may have changed the details a bit. There's no way a high school teacher mistakenly inputted optional participation grades.
