Grade Update Schedule & RIGHT Reports
Grades will not be updated weekly. The dates on the table below reflect the frequency. Additionally, you will find the number of grades that will be updated each time.
Ask your scholar about their RIGHT Report today! Weekly progress reports go home every Thursday afternoon. RIGHT reports do not have to be signed or returned to the school. These are strictly for your information.
TxEIS Ascender Parent Portal
The portal will allow you to check your child's assignments in each class. You will be able to see the title of the assignment, whether it was classwork or an assessment, and your scholar's grade on it. This gives you more specific information regarding their progress and/or makeup assignments. You may also review your child(ren)'s attendance information in the portal.
Please ask your child for the letter they received, or contact Dr. Chambers at cchambers@compassrosesa.org for your unique ID information.
The official link to our portal is https://txeis20.txeis.net/ParentPortal/login?distid=015838. You may also click the Login button below. Select "Create Account" and follow the directions. Again, you will need the access code to see your child's grades.
