Assessment is an integral and ongoing part of the instructional cycle. Teachers collect information regarding student progress using a variety of broad-based assessment strategies including of portfolios, journals, daily work samples and tests. Teachers and administration are available to meet with parents at any time during the school year as well as at scheduled Parent-Teacher-Student Conferences.
In June, students receive a final report card with the entire year’s information included. Meetings may be set up with teachers and are not required. If students are on Individualized Program Plans (IPP) to support their learning, teachers will arrange meetings with the parents prior to conferences and reporting. Parental involvement in the IPP process is essential to the success of these program plans.
Assessment and Reporting at the CBE
We know it is important for parents/guardians to understand how their children are doing in school. Research shows that students are more successful with active parent/guardian involvement.
The report card is one component in communicating student learning. In addition to the report card, schools communicate with parents/guardians about student progress on an ongoing basis in a variety of ways.
Assessment happens every day, in every classroom, throughout the school year. Assessing a student’s progress is one of the most important ways we support the continued learning of our students.
We have developed some resources related to assessment and report cards, and to help you learn more about your child's learning. As more resources are developed, you will find them here.
Digital report cards are available through MyCBE. For help with accessing student assessment and reporting information, please refer to the information in the MyCBE Technical Support for Students & Parents Support website.
