Report Cards
Report card conferences are an important time to provide feedback for families about children’s academic, social and emotional progress and how families can help at home. Report cards will be available on Aspen, Quincy Public Schools Student Information System beginning on Tuesday December 6th. Report Card conferences will be held on Wednesday, December 13th Families have the option of either an in person or a virtual conference. If families have chosen a virtual conference, your child’s teacher will share a meeting link. Teachers are looking forward to meeting with families and sharing more information about student progress. With report cards and conferences, families should have a clear sense of how each child is progressing. We continue to be pleased by how well students respond to the challenges placed before them. Parent conferences are another means to strengthen home/school communication. As always, if you have any questions, please let me know.
