Kindergarten Reporting System
Conferencing will take place on the following days:
• November 8: No school all day for children
• November 16: Early release for children
Both days will be for an initial meeting with parents. Baseline alphabet and
math skills assessment will be shared with the parents.
During the first week of February each Kindergarten teacher will have a
substitute teacher to cover their class while they conference with the
parents. The conferences will be on different days of the week so that all
teachers do not require subs on the same day. At this conference the mid-year
math assessment, the initial phonics assessments, and January writing prompt
will be shared.
As you may know, the school wide conferences on April 11 are scheduled at the
discretion of the teacher and parents in order to discuss students who would
benefit from an additional meeting in between the January and June
conferences.
During the beginning of June there will be an end of the year conference
when the student work samples from the portfolio will be given to the parents.
At the June conference the end-of-the-year math assessment along with the
final phonics assessments and May writing prompt are shared with parents. As
in February, substitute teachers will be hired to cover the class during the
conference times for the teachers.
We feel that this reporting system is an appropriate way to increase good
communication between home and school.
