[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]For equity reasons[/b], a copy of the beginning of the year assessments should have come home in a folder.  I received copies for both my kids.

Kindergarten report cards are coming up soon and that should give you a better idea how things are going.  They should be doing assessments for report cards this month. In older grades you do get more regular report cards--kindergarten is an anomaly.[/quote]

What? For the purpose of equity, assessment results should have been sent home in a folder?

OP, not sure what you are expecting from the teacher.  A weekly communication is far more than we ever got from our schools at any level. You are getting regular communication.  Beginning of year assessments are reviewed (or typically should be) with parents at the fall parent-teacher conferences.  If there's an issue, the teacher SHOULD contact you; but if you have questions or concerns, you are ALWAYS able to contact the teacher via email to ask or arrange a phone call or meeting.  If you get a teacher who is unresponsive, you should contact the principal.

Your privilege is shining through. You seriously don’t understand the benefit of sending home paper correspondence?[/quote][b]Kindergarten assessments weren't complete by the fall patent teacher conference.[/b]  They're on a different timeline.

I understand that APS asks schools to send hope paper versions of the BOY assessments for those parents who may not be able to or know how to access ParentVue.  I'm not even sure it's the teachers who do this--it may be school admin, but we've always gotten a paper copy.  [/quote]

That can (and probably should) be changed.  [/quote]
