Class of 2017: This year, as in the past, all Howard County public schools will send mid-year reports to all colleges for which students have previously requested a transcript. This will be done on February 17 and will include 1st quarter, 2nd quarter, and mid-term exam grades. Families can view the list of colleges receiving mid-year reports by clicking on the "Colleges I'm applying to" link in Naviance. If a student has changed the list of colleges to which they are applying, he/she should contact their counselor to make sure that all documents required are submitted.
