Interim Grade Reports
In addition to two formal reporting periods, Heritage Christian Online School has developed an Interim Grade Report (IGR) to ensure families are aware of any challenges or concerns regarding their child’s progress between reporting periods.
About the IGR:IGR
IGRs are an optional report designed for teachers to communicate to families any concerns that they may have with a student. For example:
- A student is performing below expectations
- A student has significantly dropped in their course progress or achievement
- There is a lack of communication with the teacher
- General concerns regarding a course grade
- If a student is in danger of failing a course
An IGR can be sent out at any
point;point during the year; however, the natural checkpoints for teachers will be in November and April, the midway point for each term.- It is possible for a student to receive more than one IGR in a school year.
IGRs will be completed on a per subject basis.
- For students in grades K-9, the support teacher may write one broad comment that addresses overall concerns in all subjects.
- For students in grades 10-12
