School Accountability Report Card

The Board of Education views school accountability report cards as an excellent way to inform the community about conditions, needs and progress at each school and to help provide data by which parents/guardians can make meaningful comparisons between schools. In addition, the process of developing the report cards gives the school staff opportunities to review achievements, identify areas for improvement, enlist local support and establish a vision for the future.

The Superintendent or designee shall maintain a process for developing annual report cards for each school site with input from all segments of the school community. After the report cards are issued, the Superintendent or designee shall provide opportunities for staff and the community to discuss their content and strategies for communicating the information contained in the cards to all stakeholders.
