Standards Based Report Cards
The Franklin Special District uses a district-wide standards-based report card format that gives parents a clear picture of how their child is progressing toward the Tennessee Academic Standards.
Using a standard rating key and consistent assessments across the district, teachers provide parents with specific feedback on a child’s mastery of state standards and their quarterly progress toward end-of-year expectations. The standards on the report card reflect end-of-year learning goals. Earning a three on a standard indicates the student has achieved end-of-year expectations. Earning a two on a standard indicates the student has achieved success for the expectation of that quarter.
Teachers tailor (differentiate) instruction to meet your child’s individual learning needs. The FSD report card alerts parents when a child is having difficulty with a concept. This allows parents and teachers an opportunity to work together to provide interventions and/or supports so the child can successfully meet the learning target.
