Grade 4 Report Card - First Trimester

Drew Got his first report card of 4th grade, and our kid is a genius -- OK I'm bias.  He did have "straight 3's" which is 4th Grade Common Core grading (we'd call it straight A's).

Each subject is given a "numerical" grade 1-3, 3 being the highest.  And then from there there are details/analysis about the grades provided. 

• +  = Area of Strength
• ✓  = Developing Appropriately
• N  = Needs More Time
• AC = Area of Concern
• X  = Not evaluated at this time

So his report card looked like the Following:
