Last day of school was June 4 and grades were released on June 13.

Private school. Middle schooler. Grades received about 8 days after school ended. Lengthy comments occurred at mid-semester, few comments for final grades as it it should be clear why grades are as they are and open gradebook was available for both child and parent to see.

Op - What are the appropriate amount of teacher comments in your opinion?

Find something positive— you received your child’s grades and your child’s teacher provided feedback. Isn’t that the goal of a report card?

Private school. We just got them. 3 weeks after school ended. Teacher comments were two sentences. I think they wait to send to make sure that all staff are gone so parents don’t complain…

I work in a public high school, and our grades are posted without delay, e.g., on the students' last day, which is the day after the students' last exam. My kid goes to a private school, and I know that the teachers work three days after the kids. The report cards, nonetheless, are delayed by 2-3 weeks. I'm sure the grades are long done, and the delay is a means to minimize drama and negotiations about grades. Look out for grades being posted on a Friday too.

We received ours last week. I assume 1 week after the last day for grades to be due. Then 1 week after that for report cards to show up in my mailbox. 3 weeks seems too long to me.

DC was in 10th. Last exam was June 6, exams results were back on or before June 11, final grades posted June 14.

We've received ours, from two different schools. What you are describing seems unusual.

What’s normal for private elementary/middle schools? Our school has been out for 3 weeks (with final grades due from teachers before that), and still nothing.

Down south, we hit them a week into summer break at the latest.
