[LM_NET] TARGET: ELEM: REPORT CARD FORMAT

["Allen, Elizabeth" <allenel@LC-PS.ORG>]

Hello.  Currently, our elementary library instruction is not a special.  We operate 
on a flexible basis between two schools.  On an average, we see about 50 classes 
per week.  At this time, we are required to fill out a "whole class" report card; 
each student in the class receives the same report card with the same grade.  The 
report card has several indicators and is the same for grades k-5.  Our current 
grading system is B (beginning), P (progressing), and S (secure). 
 
Next week, we are meeting to re-design our report card.  Many of us would like to 
move to a classroom newsletter format where each teacher receives a newsletter.  I 
feel it's really the only way parents will know what their kids come to the media 
center for, as, our list of current indicators are very non-descript.  Those who 
are required to report, do any of you have examples you'd be willing to forward 
that we can use as a springboard for somewhere to start?  Any suggestions are 
greatly appreciated as well!
 
Please respond off list.
 
Thanks,
