Grading

The Kindergarten Progress Report is used by teachers in evaluating the ongoing growth and development of their students, as defined by the AKS.

The following scale is used to assess 1st graders on progress toward the AKS in the following academic areas: effort, conduct, art, music, health, and physical education:

E = Surpasses Standards

S = Satisfactory

N = Needs to Improve

U = Unsatisfactory

The grade is a report of the individual student's progress (as defined by the AKS) to the student, to his or her parents, and to others who are concerned with the student's progress in education. Student academic progress shall be graded by means of a numerical average according to the following scale for grades 2 - 5:

90% and above	A	excellent progress
80%-89%	B	above average progress
70%-79%	C	average progress
0%-69%	U/F	unsatisfactory progress/failure of acceptable progress
