Student information cards in 3x5 and 4x6 with contact and behavior logs
Every child's details in one small stack, ready before a call, a conference or a sick day.
Overview
Student information cards put each child's contacts, notes and records onto small index cards that share one box, so no binder is needed. You get 31 undated pages: eight designs in exact 3 x 5 in and 4 x 6 in sizes with crop marks, lined and dot grid backs and tabbed A to Z dividers. Files are US Letter and A4 PDF, delivered as an instant download.
Pull one student's cards in a moment, whether you are calling home, meeting a family or leaving notes for a substitute.
How student information cards save time all year
Each student has a few cards tucked behind the divider for their last name. When a call, a conference or a sick day comes up, you lift out just that child's stack. The main card gathers family contacts, allergies, a birthday with month and day only, and how the student travels home. The Parent contact log notes each call, email, note or meeting and has a tick for follow up.
Behavior note, Reading level and Conference notes cards build a brief, dated record to share with families. The Substitute quick info card tells a sub who can help, who leaves early and who has an allergy. Already have a full teacher binder? These cards are the portable version for a desk drawer.
Who these student cards are for
- Elementary and middle school teachers who want one small card per student rather than a binder page
- New teachers getting records ready for back to school and the first week
- Reading and support teachers keeping track of levels, accommodations and family contacts for their students
- Teachers who like a ready handover for a substitute when they are out sick
Design, sizes and printing
- Elegant and minimal: white pages with soft blush pink accents that need little ink
- Wide margins all around, so a home printer will not trim anything away
- Exact trims: 3 x 5 in (7.6 x 12.7 cm), printed three per page, and 4 x 6 in (10.2 x 15.2 cm), printed two per page, both with crop marks, on US Letter (8.5 x 11 in) or A4 (210 x 297 mm)
- No dates, so the cards work in any school year
- Birthdays use month and day only, never the year
- Print two sided and flip on the long edge, and the lined and dot backs line up with the fronts

Eight tabbed A to Z dividers, from A to C through V to Z, let you file each child's cards behind the letter of their last name. The dividers come in both card sizes.
Is there a card students fill in themselves?
Yes. The All about me card is for the student, with prompts like how I learn best and one thing I want my teacher to know.
Does the birthday field include the year?
No. Birthdays are written as month and day only.
Can I use the IEP and 504 card as an official record?
No. It is a short personal reminder, not a copy of a plan, and it is not legal, medical or educational compliance advice.
