Gloucester County Public Schools is implementing a standards-based report card beginning with the 2011-2012 school year. In Virginia, teaching and learning are guided by the Standards of Learning (SOLs). The Standards of Learning are established by the Commonwealth of Virginia for public schools, describing expectations for student learning and achievement in grades K-12. Teachers teach a standards-based curriculum and assess students on the standards the students are learning. The movement to standards-based report cards is happening throughout the United States and aligns the information provided to parents on the report with how we are currently teaching and assessing students. Our standards-based report cards will now reflect objectives established in the Standards of Learning for Mathematics, Science, English and Social Studies at each grade level. Report Cards are intended to be a reflection of student progress and achievement through the grade-level academic curriculum.
