We use many indicators of student growth to form decisions about student progress.

We examine assessment data and make observations to generalize if a student is academically and socially successful.

I created these forms to use as a guide for conferences with families. We know that our students are more than just a score, and I think these forms successfully guide us through positive, growth-oriented discussions.

These are designed to be used with whole families or just with students. This documentation is editable (Google Slides) and printable (Google Slides and PDF).

Let's take a look at the different forms!

The way that I see it...

Promoting discussions about targeted growth for students' academic progress and social well-being is an opportunity to include families in their child's educational experience.
