[quote=Anonymous]My experience is that they are a vehicle to alert parents when there’s a problem. If you’re getting the boilerplate, your kid is either doing fine or at least keep out of trouble. That’s probably the most you can glean from it. We had a kid with learning disabilities that we first caught onto because of issues flagged by the teacher on a report card. With my other kid, it’s how we learned he hadn’t been doing any of the assigned work. I rarely saw comments reflecting a nuanced understanding of my kids’ performance. Only alarm bells or boilerplate - little in between. I came to accept that no news was good news.[/quote]
