(Elementary Schools) Beginning of Grade (BOG) Student Achievement Level and Growth

Each parent is provided information on the level of achievement and academic growth of their student on each of the state academic assessments.  Parents are given information on how to interpret academic levels and academic growth.  (Element 6)   

• • Schools should notify parents that the student's testing information is available in the parent portal.  Individual reports are released on the timeline required by the state or under local decisions and made viewable in the parent portal.  If parents are not able to navigate the parent portal it is the school's responsibility to help the parent find and interpret their child's test information.

  • On letterhead explain in detail, when the individual test information for your students was available in the parent portal and how you notified parents that the information was in the portal.  What plan did you offer for parents of students who did not have access to the parent portal or understand how to use the portal?  Did you have a station set up during a parent night to help parents access the parent portal?  Did the staff help explain the test information from the parent portal to the parents?
