Does Milo write my report cards for me?

Not on its own — and that's by design. You give Milo the evidence you've gathered on a student, it drafts a Growing Success-aligned comment, and then you read it, edit it, and approve it. Your professional judgement stays in charge of everything that goes home.

Will the comments actually match Growing Success language?

Yes. Milo drafts in achievement Levels 1-4 for the curriculum and uses the E/G/S/N scale for Learning Skills and Work Habits, so the comments come back in the format your board and principal expect — you're not translating generic text into policy language yourself.

Can I use it for Kindergarten?

You can. Milo supports the Kindergarten Four Frames Communication of Learning, so Kindergarten educators get drafts in the right structure, the same way Grade 1-8 teachers do for the curriculum and Learning Skills.

What does Milo cost, and where do I log in?

Milo is $10 CAD a month, and your first month is free, so you can try it through a real report card cycle before paying. You log in at milo.nextclass.ca.

Growing Success Report Card Software

Growing Success-aligned report card software is a tool that helps Ontario teachers write report card comments that match the language and structure of the Growing Success (2010) assessment policy. That means it speaks in achievement Levels 1–4, uses the E/G/S/N scale for Learning Skills and Work Habits, supports the Kindergarten Four Frames Communication of Learning — and, crucially, keeps the teacher's professional judgement in charge of every comment that goes home.

Milo does exactly this. You bring the evidence you've already gathered on a student, and Milo drafts a clear, policy-aligned comment for you to read, edit, and approve. If you'd like to try it on your own class, you can start your free month.

What makes report card software “Growing Success-aligned”?

Growing Success-aligned software produces comments that fit the policy Ontario teachers are actually held to — not generic “good job” text. In practice that means using achievement Level 1–4 language for the curriculum, the E/G/S/N scale for the six Learning Skills and Work Habits, and Communication of Learning structure for Kindergarten. Milo is built around these exact requirements, so the drafts you get already speak the language your principal and your board expect.

How does Milo keep my professional judgement in charge?

Milo drafts; you decide. Every comment is generated from the evidence you provide about a specific student, and it lands in front of you to review, reword, or rewrite before anything is final. The Growing Success policy is clear that professional judgement is at the heart of assessment, and Milo is designed to support that judgement, never replace it — no comment goes home unless you've approved it.

Does it cover Learning Skills and Kindergarten?

Yes. Milo handles the six Learning Skills and Work Habits on the E/G/S/N scale (responsibility, organization, independent work, collaboration, initiative, and self-regulation), and it supports Kindergarten educators writing the Four Frames Communication of Learning. Whether you teach a primary class, a junior class, or Kindergarten, the drafts come back in the right format for your report.

Is my students' data safe?

Your students' data is stored in Canada and handled in line with PIPEDA, Canada's federal privacy law. Student names are stripped and replaced with placeholders before anything is sent to the AI, and Milo does not train AI models on your students' personal information — the evidence you enter is used to help draft that student's comments, full stop. See Canadian data residency for school AI tools for the full picture.
