- Attendance - Don't forget to check in the attendance folder daily
- Help! - Use the message envelope to send/check messages from Mrs. Barker
- Submitting an assignment - check the orange "How to Submit" folder on Schoology if you're having difficulties uploading an assignment. The Kami extension app also helps.
- Student progress button - Shows current progress of work completed M-Th
- Grading - Students can move onto the next day's assignment, once they have earned credit on their current assignment for the day

- Friday Catch- up- If you have any unfinished work for the week, a friendly reminder will be sent out to you on Friday morning. Mrs. Barker is available for support. If you need the weekend, weekly folders won't become inactive until Monday morning just before the new week begins.
MONITOR YOUR CHILD'S OVERALL PROGRESS ON POWERSCHOOL
POWERSCHOOL
As you login to PowerSchool to monitor your child's progress for this last semester, you will notice that the assignments submitted on Schoology will be documented. Because it is a continuation of the grades from January to March, you will notice your student's overall percentage grade will not change. Students are being given an overall "credit" or "no credit" for the entire second semester, including the school closure.
Students will be given a "green check mark" for completion/credit on their submitted assignments. If a student does not turn in the assignment, it will be marked "missing." If the assignment was incomplete, it will be marked "incomplete."
Thank you for checking PowerSchool to monitor your child's progress on Schoology assignments.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! (Sunday May 10th)
