Standards-Based Reporting


In 2003-2004 a committee comprised of teachers, parents, administrators, and supervisors was formed to begin researching standards-based reporting. Standards have had a dramatic and positive impact on student achievement across the nation. By establishing clear expectations of what students should know and be able to do, standards create fairness and an opportunity to learn for all students.

The committee spent two and a half years researching and developing the report.
In January 2006 a Standards-Based Report was implemented in kindergarten, first, and second grade, and in February 2007 a third grade report was issued. These documents provide parents with information about a student’s progress towards achievement of the end-of-year grade level standards.

The Pennsylvania State Standards are the expectation of what students should know and be able to do. The Standards-Based Report was created in order to communicate clearly, consistently, and fairly to parents and students.
