How is progress reported for special needs students?
Progress by all students is reported against the same criteria; the standards/benchmarks for that grade level. A lack of proficiency on any standard does not signal failure – but that we need to continue to assist student development in that area. Teachers can include information on student progress on individual goals through the teacher’s comment section of the report, as well as to share if the student has a ‘replacement curriculum’ or the grades are actually provided by another teacher.
