Progress Reports for Elementary Schools

Teachers,

If your school is one that uses the diocesan Progress Report here are directions and reminders. If your school does not have access to the progress report and would like to see it, please send me an email.

REMINDER: for lower grades (grades K-4) comments for report cards and progress reports are only "pulled" from the homeroom, not the individual classes. Grades 5-8 can place comments in the individual classes.

If you are using the "canned" comments from the Comment Bank, when using more than one comment, you MUST put a space between the numbers or they will not print the comments, they will print the numbers instead.

The comments must be placed on the quarter grade for it to show on the progress report or report card. If you do not want the progress report comment to repeat on the report card you must remember to go into the student's record and either remove or change the comment prior to the printing of the report card.

PRINTING DIRECTIONS: From PowerTeacher: Either click on the button "Reports" on the left hand side of the screen or click on the printer icon on the right side of the screen. The choice of Class Attendance Audit or Progress Report will be available for any school that already has the progress report. If you do not see a Progress Report then your school does not have one yet. Choose whether to print for all students and click submit on the bottom of the page. You will then be taken to a screen that is called the "Report Queue." In the top right hand corner next to the log out button you will see what looks like a piece of paper being written on. In the middle of the page you will see the report name toward the left and the word "running" on the right. Above the list is a blue "refresh" word. Click on this word until the word "running" becomes the word "completed." Click on the word "Completed" and the reports will come up in another window, more than likely an Adobe file. You can print them for distribution.

This report is saved. If you ever want to go back to it and print any copies again, click on the small paper in the right upper corner by the log out button. Any reports you no longer need can be deleted from the Report Queue by clicking on the trash can on the right.
