The time is approaching when teachers send home mid-semester reports. Mid-semester reports are just as important as end-of-semester grades, if not more important, because the purpose of these reports is to inform families about their child’s academic and class progress during the first semester.
The mid-semester reports for elementary and junior high school grades come with specific sections related to the student’s academic performance in the different areas in the different subjects they are studying.
This year there is going to be a major change in students’ mid-semester reports, as the report recognizes and endorses the different areas of the student:
Attitude: Has a positive and respectful attitude towards peers and teachers.
Delivery: Complies with the delivery of assignments and activities performed in class.
Skills: Develops the skills and acquires the knowledge expected in the class activities or assignments.
Effort: Demonstrates your best effort.
Sending the reports is an excellent time to talk to your child and also, do not hesitate to contact the teachers if you have any questions.
