A message from our principal, Mrs. Anne Knapke
Dear Gwynedd-Mercy Academy Family and Friends,
Today, parents have been emailed information regarding how to access our new report cards. The faculty and staff have put forth great effort this trimester to design report cards that best communicate our students' achievements and progress. All Kindergarten through 8th grade report cards have been integrated within RenWeb's ParentsWeb, allowing our parents to access and view report cards for the current year.
While the 4th through 8th grade report cards have minor adjustments, the most significant changes have occurred within our Kindergarten through 3rd grade report cards.
In Grades 1-3, parents will notice two sets of grades: the subject grade average and subject skill set grades. The Marking Code or subject grade average represents a student's achievement throughout the trimester within the subject area. The Performance Indicators or skill set grades within each subject area are determined through various classroom assessments and teacher observations.
In Kindergarten, students are graded only on the skill sets associated with each subject area.
As always, communication is very important to us. If you have any questions concerning your child's report card, please do not hesitate to contact your child's teacher.
In Christ's love and mercy,
Anne W. Knapke, M.Ed.
Principal
