<li class="editableBlock" style="color: rgb(81, 85, 89); font-size: 1rem; font-weight: 400; font-family: Lato, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.7;">Before the semester ends, students get a progress report at the end of 9 weeks
<ul>
<li class="editableBlock" style="color: rgb(81, 85, 89); font-size: 1rem; font-weight: 400; font-family: Lato, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.7;">Exceptions are Willie Brown and Rooftop K-8, which do progress reports at the end of every six weeks.
