Specialists' Grading Info

Report Card Guide for Specialists' Grades
(Art, Library, Music and Physical Education)

The primary purpose of the elementary report card is to communicate student progress to parents, students and other staff. The report card documents student performance over a period of time and provides feedback regarding concerns and strengths. Accountability for learning is shared by students, parents and teachers. The intent of the report card is to provide a common understanding of the student's progress and facilitate next steps.

Learning is measured against Washington State Standards common to all students at that grade level. Progress is determined through multiple measures (assessments, student artifacts, informal observations, etc.) It is not the intent of the report card to report on every aspect of learning that occurs in the classroom.
