# New Course Specific Assessment Update — November Reporting

Schools are required to formally report on your child's progress three times a year. For individualized courses, the SLP (Student Learning Plan) Report meets this requirement.

For online, hybrid, and synchronous courses, we will issue a Course Specific Assessment Update each November . This gives you clear, current information on your child's progress in each of these courses delivered through Brightspace.
