Why switch from the previous report cards?
The Standards of Learning for Virginia Public Schools describe the Commonwealth’s expectations for student learning and achievement in grades K-12 in several content areas. These standards represent a broad consensus of what parents, classroom teachers, school administrators, academics, business representatives, and community leaders believe schools should teach and students should learn. With the increased focus on standards-based education, school divisions in Virginia and throughout the nation are moving toward standards-based grading and report cards.
