Report Card Revisions for Grades K-8 – September 2017
In the Fall of 2017, District 58 will be implementing changes to its quarterly report cards in grades K-8. In grades K-6, these changes are minimal and simply continue to align the report card document with our beliefs regarding assessment and reporting. Additionally, the middle school report card will now be aligned with all district reporting through the addition of a standards-based system.
The purpose of the standards-based report card is to provide feedback to parents and students regarding the student’s achievement toward the specific learning standards at his/her grade level at a given point in time. District 58 values regular communication with all parents in a variety of formats including but not limited to conferences, phone calls and digital communication. The report card is only one of the many valuable communications to parents regarding student progress, achievement and growth; the information contained in the quarterly report card ultimately summarizes the information that has been shared with parents over the course of the quarter of instruction.

Below you will find draft versions of grade level report cards and resource documents. While the formatting of each is still being finalized, the content is essentially complete and available for your review.
