Grading Policies & Reporting
Progress Reports and Student Learning Assessments (SLAs, also known as Report Cards) are primarily a communication tool between teachers, students, and parents about each student’s progress in academics, conduct and effort. The standard SLA of the Diocese of Orange is issued three times each year to all students. Deficiency notices may be issued at any time a child is averaging a D or F in any subject.
