SFUSD Simplifies 2024-25 Standards Based Report Cards

In 2024-25, the TK-5 Standards Based Report Cards (SBRC’s) have been updated to streamline scoring for teachers, and improve communication of students’ progress toward end-of-year grade level standards to families.

Updates to SBRC's are based on feedback from staff and families, and informed by research from other districts. 

  • Families requested report cards with simpler language and improved readability. 
  • Educators requested streamlined scoring rubrics and resources, and academic content area items aligned with current instructional shifts.  

See below for a summary of updated features based on feedback from staff and families, and informed by research from other districts:
