School document template

Report card template

A clean one-page report card with a five-subject grade table, a grade point average row, and a teacher comment box. Fill one by hand, or generate the whole class from your gradebook in one mail merge run.

Rendered report card: school letterhead, student stat strip, a green-headed subject and grade table with a GPA total row, and a teacher comment box

End of term means the same report card, once per student, and every retyped grade is a chance to send the wrong one home. This template treats the gradebook as the source of truth: a header strip identifies the student, term, and homeroom, a five-row table lists each subject beside its grade, a highlighted row carries the grade point average, and a comment box holds the teacher's remark for that student.

Keep it as a fill-in Word document, or connect the gradebook export and MailMergic renders a personalized report card per row, ready to print or to email to each family.

These templates are general information, not legal advice; grading and records policies vary by district, so review the layout with your administration first.

What is in the Word document

More than a block of text an AI chat can improvise: a complete, formatted document built for school offices that use it for real.

  • School letterhead with editable name, address, and contact lines
  • A student strip: name, grade level, term, and homeroom teacher
  • A five-subject grade table with a highlighted grade point average row
  • A full-width teacher comment box and a principal signature line
  • Sixteen mail merge fields, so one gradebook row fills the entire card

Copy the plain text below, or download the formatted Word document with the letterhead and layout built in.

Before you send

  1. 1.Check the gradebook export column order once against the field mapping; one shifted column would grade every student wrong.
  2. 2.Longest comment in the class goes in first as a test; the comment box fits about three lines.
  3. 3.Confirm the GPA column is the computed value you want printed; the template prints what the sheet says and calculates nothing.
  4. 4.If report cards go home by email, send yourself the first one and open the PDF before releasing the batch.

When to use this template

Report card template FAQ

Can it calculate the GPA?
No, and that is deliberate. The card prints the GPA your gradebook computed, so the sheet stays the single source of truth. Compute in the spreadsheet, print with mail merge.
What if we grade more than five subjects?
Add rows to the table in Word and give each new row its own mail merge fields (Subject 6, Grade 6) before uploading; MailMergic picks up whatever fields the document carries.
Can each family get their card by email?
Yes. MailMergic can email each generated PDF to an address column in the same spreadsheet, one personalized report card per recipient.
Is this an official transcript?
No. It is a report card layout for communicating grades. Official transcripts follow your district or institution rules; check with your administration.
