It is recommended that you now print out a copy of the data in the report card in order to review.

  21. Signing off • Once you’ve completed your report card, and marked each section “This section is finished” you’re ready to sign off on the School Report Card. • MISSION CRITICAL POINT: Until you sign off online, your Report Card is considered incomplete. KDE regulations require the superintendent (or a designee) and the principal to sign off on the school report card. You no longer need SBDM approval,; however, the SBDM has the power to insist on their approval, if they so act. • With new regulations the superintendent (or a designee) and the principal are required to sign off on the card to meet KDE regulation. • There are three important points to the signoff process, depending upon your role: • The school must sign off on its School Report Card. (principal) • The district must sign off on each School Report Card. (JCPS district) • The district must sign off on its District Report Card. (JCPS district) • Signoff process: • To sign off at the school level, you click the link called “School Signoff.”. Once you do, the “school signoff” link changes to say “Reverse School Signoff” and another link will appear to say “District Signoff.” • After you have reviewed, approved and signed off on your school report card, please fax the “Confirmation Sheet” (that was sent in your SRC packet) to the Accountability, Research and Planning Department at 6255. This grants the district your permission to sign off at the district level. • Next, the District Coordinator must click the “district signoff” link to indicate the district accepts the information in your school’s Report Card. Once that is done, your School Report Card is considered finished. • Once all the school report cards are signed off for the district and the District Report Card is • complete, the District Report Card Coordinator must click the “signoff” • link for the District Report Card. • The School Report Card will no longer be mailed to parents and the Web publication will be the primary conveyance or delivery of the card. Schools are required to print copies of the card • for parents without internet access.
