Alcoa Elementary School Home

Wishing all of our families a fun, safe and relaxing break.

Grades are available in Skyward.

If you are logging in on your phone, Click HOME and you should see CLASS GRADES. If you are logging in on a computer, Click Famly Access→ select your student from the dropdown (if you have more than one student enrolled in ACS → Click Gradebook. Next to each subject, you should see a number 1-4. These numbers represent your child’s term grade for the 1st quarter.

AES utilizes a standards-based grading system.

1 = Below Expectations: Your child is working below current grade level expectations. We are providing your child with additional support in learning and applying the skill. Your child is significantly below target.

2 = Approaching Expectations: Your child is approaching the current grade level expectations, however, he/she is making progress toward mastery of the standard and progressing toward the application of the skill with additional support. Your child is approaching the grade level target.

3 = Met Expectations: Your child has met the current grade level expectations and is applying grade-level standards appropriately in class. Your child is on target.

4 = Exceeded Expectations: Your child is exceeding and performing beyond the current grade level standard and is working above grade level expectations when applying the skills. Your child is above target.

Take time to look through everything and consider the following:

** Everyone has room to grow somewhere.

** The scores from this report card will not be averaged with the next one. If your child received a score of 1 or 2, it is imperative that you begin working with your student at home so that he/she does not get further behind. When we return from the break, our classes will continue to hit the ground running with more and more new material when we return from break.

** Term grades are not necessarily an average of the assessments taken within each term. The Term grade is an overall picture of how your child is performing in each subject area at this time.

** The most beneficial thing you can do to support your child at home is to read with them for 20 minutes each night.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out to us. It’s been an incredible joy to watch your child grow during the first 9 weeks of this school year. We hope you all have a great Fall Break
