Academic Progress Reports

Progress Reports

Progress reports are sent to parents or guardians advising them of a student's academic status. There will be a progress report in October prior to the first card and as needed throughout the year. The first parent-teacher conference will be held immediately after the first progress report. Progress reports must be signed by a parent or guardian and returned to the school.

Potential Failure Reports

Potential failure reports are sent to parents during the last quarter of the term. The purpose of these reports is to alert parents concerning the need for a student's extra study in a particular academic area.

Report Cards

Official report cards are issued 4 times a year, at the completion of each quarter. Parents or guardians are expected to review the student's report card so that any scholastic weakness may be detected and appropriate steps taken to improve a student's academic performance. The passing grade is 70%, but such a mark is an indication of weakness in that subject and should be dealt with accordingly. Report cards are to be signed by the parent or guardian and the carbon copy of the report is to be returned to the school.

Academic Failure

Any student who fails a one-semester course must repeat that course in summer school even if the course failure is in the first semester.

A student who receives a final failing grade for a subject will be required to  attend St. Edmund Preparatory High School summer school. A student who  fails three or more academic subjects each marking period will be required to attend a conference with their parents or guardians and the Principal or Assistant Principal. Students who are unable to pass all failed subjects in summer school will not be allowed to return to St. Edmund Prep.

Students must make up course failures in summer school. There are absolutely no exceptions to this policy. Students who fail to make up a failed course in summer school will be prohibited from attending St. Edmund Prep the following school year.

Academic Preparation

In order to succeed in each subject, students must habitually commit themselves to taking notes, participating in class discussions, completing homework, and preparing for tests wholeheartedly.

Students are expected to prepare diligently each and every night for the next days classes. An average of approximately one and a half hours of study per night is necessary to achieve one's potential.

Students who fail to submit homework assignments regularly may be required to attend mandatory homework sessions. Students who are failing a class may be required to attend remedial classes held before or after school. Failure to attend any of these classes or homework sessions will most likely result in a conference between parents or guardians and the Assistant Principal to determine a course of action. Continued absences from these programs may result in the student's dismissal.
