Congratulations and Welcome!
Renaissance Place Update
It's finally here! Teachers and students with existing RenPlace accounts will use the same credentials as they used last year.
The login names and initial passwords for new teachers will be the first letter of their first name + full last name (for both username and initial password)
New students will login with their normal 7/8 digit Username (elocker login name) and, for the moment, the password abc
New students may be prompted to change their password. If they do, please have them set it to their standard five letter password.
We are working on a 'fix' for the new student passwords, but students may use the program now.

Thought for the Week
"Teaching and learning should bring joy. How powerful would our world be if we had kids who were not afraid to take risks, who were not afraid to think, and who had a champion? Every child deserves a champion, an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be. Is this job tough? You betcha. Oh yes, you betcha. But it is not impossible. We can do this. We're educators. We're born to make a difference." -Rita Pierson
