Lake Forest School District has officially moved to Standards-Based Grading for Kindergarten through 5th Grade! This shift helps us provide more meaningful feedback about what your child knows and is able to do.
To support families, we’ve created a Parent Handbook that explains:
✔️ What Standards-Based Grading is
✔️ Why this change was made
✔️ How you can support your child at home
🔗 Access the General Parent Handbook here
Inside, you’ll also find grade-specific guides that show:
📘 What is graded at each level
📝 How grades are reported
🏡 Tips for helping at home
Printed and digital copies are also available on the Lake Forest website and on each elementary school’s site.
Thank you for partnering with us to support your child’s success! 💙
