Progress Reports

Progress Reports

Reporting to parents occurs regularly throughout the school year through the use of Parent Portal. This continuous communication provides Grade 1 - 8 students and parents with feedback that is clear, specific, meaningful and timely to support improved learning and achievement.

Progress Reports are issued twice a year to parents/caregivers of Kindergarten through Grade 8 students. In 2018, Reports will be issued on February 2nd and June 28th.

Personal & Social Growth

Regina Public Schools shared values allow students to know how to learn more effectively, develop their potential as independent learners and take ownership over their own learning. They are evaluated separately from student achievement of course expectations.

Levels of Achievement

The levels of achievement scale describes the student's progression toward meeting provincial outcomes. The levels are not used to compare students with other students.

Grades

K-8                                             Meaning

BE     The student is having difficulty meeting the outcome and requires assistance.

PR     Students who are progressing as expected will be in this range. Some assistance is required.

ME     The student is fully meeting the outcome. They show what they know independently.

ET     The child has full mastery of the outcome and can apply the knowledge. Students with these grades have extensive and deep understanding of the outcome and require no guidance or assistance.

IN     The student has not yet demonstrated enough evidence for reporting purposes.

AG     The student demonstrates understanding of outcomes that are adjusted in number and complexity. This level of achievement would be discussed with parents prior to the formal Progress Report.

EL     The student is focused on English language proficiency. Adjustments have been made to curriculum expectations to address language learning.

 

 

 

Community Engagement Forum

Recent changes to Province of Saskatchewan Education Act legislation have resulted in the elimination of the requirement of Boards of Education to hold a annual meeting of electors.

The Regina Board of Education believes that it is important to continue to provide its communities with opportunities to learn about and discuss public education issues that are important to them. The Regina Board of Education will be, therefore, hosting a Community Engagement Forum on January 30th at École Harbour Landing School at 7:00 p.m. Mark your calendars!

Stay tuned for more details about the event!

The Pawson Players would appreciate your support with their silver collection at the door. Our school respects the copyright law that protects companies that publish books and produce movies, music recordings and plays. Our Pawson drama troupe has legally purchased the scripts for use in this production, and appreciates your help in offsetting the costs for these scripts and other associated drama production costs.

Parents and family may take pictures and/or video of their family for private and personal use only. To not distract students, please refrain from the use of flash photography during performances. For the safety and privacy of all our students, if you choose to share images or videos on social media, please be respectful of other families, as they may not wish their children’s images to be shared.

Thank you also, for supporting our Pawson School Community Council (SCC) in this year's 50/50 draw, lottery license #SR17-2627. Tickets will be sold prior to the evening performance. 50% of the ticket revenue brought in goes to the winning ticket holder, and 50% goes to the SCC for projects supporting Ruth Pawson School students. Ticket prices are 3/$5 or 10/$10. The winning number will be announced at the end of the evening's performance.

 

                             

Coats for Kids

Our Pawson ACT! student leadership group supervised by Mrs. K. Couse, will be collecting gently used children's coats and jackets on December 18th and 19th. The ACT! group will deliver the donated coats to the Regina YWCA Isabel Johnson Shelter. The shelter's focus is on empowering women for violence-free lives. We encourage Pawson families to clean out closets and donate to this worthy cause.
