Interim progress reports will go home on Wednesday. Please realize that an interim progress report is just a snap-shot of a student’s grade on that one particular day in time. EVERY time we have a new grade, the average changes. 

The date of interim is no more important than most other dates in a given quarter.  So, why do we bother sending them home? An interim should be used is as a measuring tool to decide if the “grade” you have on interim reflects you and your ability.  Are you on target?  Are you under-performing?  The interim lets you know that you still have half a quarter to make the one date and “grade” that does count, your average on day 45, be what you want it to be.

It is typical (for my class) that by the time you get your interim report on paper, it is no longer current. mygradebook.com should ALWAYS be considered the most current information for your averages. I promise I’m not withholding grades from you, I get them entered as soon as the papers are graded!
