Montville Common Core Report Cards to be Sent Out

The Common Core, adopted by 46 states, is a New Jersey Department of Education initiative designed to provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn. 

Common Core is being implemented into the Montville School District and for the elementary schools, there will be a new report card to reflect the new standards, starting this first quarter.

The first quarter ends Friday so expect these new report cards soon. The attached PDF can be downloaded and is a sample of the report cards for Grades K-5. These samples were handed out at an October meeting, at which Andrea Selvaggi, Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction; Pat Stryker, Supervisor of Special Services; and Elise Miller, supervisor of elementary education led an Informational Parent Meeting about the new report card.
