Langford Grading Communication Letter to Parents

Dear Langford Parents,

I hope this email finds you and your family well. Thank you for your patience while our district’s instructional leaders used the guidance from the South Carolina Department of Education to formulate a plan to count e-learning/remote learning toward the completion of the second semester of the 2019-2020 school year. The information below outlines how all elementary schools in Richland Two will use the e-learning/remote learning assignments to assess students’ progress. In these unprecedented times, our focus remains on student progress and learning. Teachers will continue to offer appropriate grade-level instruction while being flexible and considerate of each family’s unique circumstances.

Grades
  1. Report cards will not be issued for the third-nine weeks. The third-nine weeks’ grades listed in Parent Portal should now be considered as interim reporting on your student’s performance through the midpoint of the second semester. If you need help logging into Parent Portal, please email Mrs. Hogan at ahogan@richland2.org
  2. The third- and fourth-nine weeks will now be counted as one grading period for the second semester.
  3. Students will not receive a traditional numerical or letter grade for the second semester.
PreK – first grade: Students will receive a “Satisfactory” or “Needs Improvement” in English/language arts and math for the second semester. Students will not receive a grade in related arts.
Second grade: Students will receive a “Pass” or “Not Pass” in English/language arts and math for the second semester. Students will not receive a grade in Related Arts.
Third grade – fifth grade: Students will receive a “Pass” or “Not Pass” in ELA, Math, Science, and Social Studies for the second semester. Students will not receive a grade in Related Arts.

E-learning/Remote Learning Assignments
  • The remote learning work assigned to students for March 19-April 9, and the e-learning/remote learning assignments starting on April 20 will count toward a child’s progress in their classes.
  • The instructional packets will be collected when we return to school in May. If the school closure is extended beyond April 30, we will announce plans for a safe collection of the work similar to how we distributed the packets. For now, please keep our child’s work in a safe place.

The faculty and staff at Langford Elementary recognize the challenges our families are facing during this unprecedented time. If your family’s current circumstances are impacting your students’ ability to complete the e-learning assignments, please reach out to your student’s teacher(s) or Mrs. Davis, our school counselor at lasdavis@richland2.org. We care deeply about our students and their families and are here to support you and your child during this unique time of teaching and learning. 

Sincerely,
Kaseena Jackson 
Principal
