This document covers the printing of Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten rough and final drafts of the progress
reports for active and inactive students. Progress reports by default will display in Adobe Acrobat (pdf) format.
In Chancery SMS there is one report for Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten. Progress reports (PK and K) can be
printed by grade level, grade level teacher, or individual student. The following pages cover these methods of
printing.
The final Spring progress report will need to be printed on plain white 8.5 by 11 paper. You should print the
rough draft progress reports on colored paper so not to confuse the two. Your principal and teachers should
sign the progress report cards prior to parent conferences.
Progress reports may be printed using the Ricoh copier, the Lexmark printer or other printers/copiers capable
of printing large jobs.
To print progress reports, log into Chancery SMS and from the Control
bar, select Reports. Scroll down and locate the Pearson Custom
Reports panel and select the AACPS Elementary Report Card Grades
PK-K.
Preferences
1. Choose a Grading Period from the
drop down menu: Spring.
2. By default only active students’
report /progress reports are printed
unless the Active + Inactive with
Grades in Specified MP radio button
is selected instead.
3. By default, reports will print
alphabetically by Homeroom.
Additional Options
When printing rough draft progress reports you will want to place a check in the Exclude Spanish Version so
not to print the Spanish version to conserve paper. Print Additional Contact Mailings when running the final
draft progress reports. For more information regarding these options, please read the Additional Report Card
Mailing Options on page 5 of this document.
Note: Having this list is important when entering Homeroom names. They must be typed exactly as they
appear on the list.
Enter the Homeroom name in the Enter Homeroom(s) field exactly as it appears in the HR column of the
Homeroom list. Separate more than one homeroom with a comma and no space after the comma. Names are
not case sensitive.
In the example below the report has been set up to run Spring progress reports for PK-K students for the
homerooms listed.
If you forget to select a grading period, the following message displays: “No results found for the parameters
selected. Please select a Marking Period of Fall or Spring.”
Spring Progress Reports display a footer that has the student’s promotion status and projected grade
level for the next school year. The date of 05/23/2013 is part of the grading set up in Chancery SMS
and cannot be altered.
Your principal and teachers should sign the progress reports prior to parent conferences. Completing the steps
for retaining students will trigger a message on the report card stating that the student has been retained. The
process of retaining students is addressed in your Grader1 Check List for the Spring Progress Reports
document.
The contact information on the School Specific tab for the student displays the “requires Spanish translation”
flag.
