Q. What is the difference between Progress Report Grades & Marking Period Grades?

A. Marking Period Grades - Those are the grades students receive every 10 weeks and those are the grades that would show up on what we traditionally refer to as "Report Cards".

Progress Report Grades - Those are a student's grades at the half point of the marking period (sometimes they are approximate). These "Progress Report Grades" are done to help parents and students monitor student progress 5 weeks into each Marking Period. NOTE: Progress Report Grades are NOT official grades, they do not count in any final averages, they are just an update on student progress.
