A single report grade for each academic subject is the most common and accepted system in elementary, middle and secondary schools. They show what learning is being assessed and if the student is below grade level, at grade level or above grade level.
Report cards use a multi-dimensional system of reporting which includes attitude, effort, school behavior and academics. It communicates to parents how a child is doing academically, socially and their life skills.
Schools use a conventional, subject-based report card or a report card that represents these intended learning outcomes as standards. A report card identifies the skills in which students are struggling, and provides a clear understanding of a student’s strengths.

Post Report Card Action
Once you have reviewed your child’s report card, and possibly discussed it with the teacher, it is important to make a plan for future action; think about things that can be done to help your child prosper in the next term, for the remainder of the school year, and for the future years ahead.
It can often be a struggle to find the educational support that you need as a parent to give your child. It is important to remember that every student learns different, therefore there is not one rule that works for all children. Some common suggestions made to help children succeed in school include: enforced homework/study time, getting a tutor, and using supplementary workbooks/material to provide extra practice for students.
Parents, think of a report card as a window into the classroom. This isn’t a view that you want to ignore – take a look in the window and take time to understand who your child is in the classroom and how you can best support them in their schooling.
As a parent, also remember that the student report sheet may not completely represent your child’s intellectual measurement.
