Midway Point of the Grading Period
We have reached the midway point of Q1 and now is a good time to check in with your student and their grades to see how well they are processing information so far this school year. We have included below how to create a powerschool account and a quick guide to the parent portal if you have yet to create an account or haven't logged in since last year.
We will begin reaching out to parents soon as Q1 conferences are scheduled for Thursday October 13th from 2:40pm - 7:40pm. We are returning to full IN PERSON CONFERENCES. Please be aware that we will hold strict to the 10 minute timeline, so please be respectful of our teachers time and the schedule they have with other parents.
