• Grading System

    The district philosophy concerning academic achievement is based on the premise that children have diverse capabilities and interests and individual patterns of growth and learning. Report cards are issued four times each school year in approximately 10-week intervals.

    Kindergarten & First Grade: 

    Students in kindergarten and first grade receive progress report cards quarterly. Their performance is measured on an array of skills and concepts based upon the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards.
     
    Grading comments listed below show how each child is progressing on a developmental continuum: 
    Grading Comments
