Dear Families:

Every year, each public school and school district in Massachusetts receives a report card. Just as your child’s report card shows how they are doing in different subjects, the school’s report card is designed to show families how our school is doing in different areas.

The report card includes multiple measures of a school’s performance and represents a new way of looking at school performance. Report cards are designed to be useful tools for everyone connected to our school. Families can use the information to have meaningful conversations with us about what the school is doing well and where there is room for improvement. Community and education leaders can use the information to better understand how to support students and our school.

Links to our district and individual school report cards are provided below. In addition to English, reports are available in 9 other languages.

Robinson Elementary Families: Your child attends a school that receives federal Title I funds. As such, you have the right to request the following information about the qualifications of your child's classroom teachers:

• whether your child's teacher is licensed in the grade levels and subject areas they teach,
• whether your child's teachers is teaching under an emergency license or waiver,
• the college degree and major of your child's teacher, and
• whether your child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications.

We encourage you to become involved in helping us improve our school. We see parents as critical partners in the success of our students and school, and we are grateful for your continued support. If you have questions about our school’s report card, would like to become involved in school improvement activities, or would like to request information about the qualifications of your child’s classroom teacher, please contact your principal.

Sincerely,

Teresa Murphy

Superintendent
