Reminder Strategies

Progress Reports

• Format– Must be reporting directly on goals and

benchmark objectives that are listed on the student’s IEP.

– Use percentages.– Not all benchmarks must be addressed on every

progress report, but they all must be addressed in the year.

Reporting Periods

• Most children are ARDed to receive progress reports on a 6 week basis.

• This coincides with the regular report card period.

• However, some students are ARDed to receive them at shorter intervals.

• These outliers may be difficult to remember, especially for related service personnel.
