C.I.S. Newsletter

The start to the school year has been wonderful! We are getting to know your child and are very excited about partnering with you throughout the year to provide the very best academic system for each and every child. We appreciate you sharing him/her with us!

C.I.S. has the same grading scale as Parkview. We use P for proficiency on the standard, A for approaching proficiency on the standard, and N for needs improvement on the standard. Grades will be posted weekly in the following content area:

1) Reading/Speaking/Listening;

2) Writing/Language;

3) Math;

4) Science;

5) Social Studies.

The grades entered as "formatives" are just a checkpoint for us to know where students are with their understanding of the standard to guide our instructional plans. The child is not expected to be at a P during the formative checkpoints. The summative grade (unit assessment) is where we would like for students to be at a P.

We have had a couple of hiccups in the system and we are working through them. Thank you for your patience.
