Attendance
Daily Learning Schedule
We encourage your child to communicate directly with his/her teachers through Google Classroom. Also, please feel free to communicate with your child's teachers, as needed, with any specific questions.
Grading
Communication Between Staff & Students
During Remote Learning Days, teachers will prioritize connections with their students. Teachers may use a variety of platforms based on their comfort level and methods previously used in the classroom. Google Classroom, Google Meeting/Hangouts, Zoom, email, and other methods may be used. Both middle schools have assigned specific teacher/student contact days, in order to make sure students have access to one of their teachers on designated Remote Learning Days. Teachers have shared how they will connect with students through their individual teacher Google Classrooms. Below is the teacher-student communication day schedule for each week:
- Monday: Math Teachers
- Tuesday: ELA & ESL Teachers
- Wednesday: Social Studies & Spanish Teachers
- Thursday: Science Teachers
- Friday: FPA, PE, & Fine Arts Teachers
Please be aware that the use of third-party virtual platforms may create potential privacy risks. Each platform will have its own privacy systems in place, data collection guidelines, and unique set of terms and conditions. We encourage you to review those if you feel the need to do so.

PowerSchool Parent Portal
PowerSchool is a proactive communication tool parents/guardians can use to stay informed about their child’s academic and work habits progress in school. Please click on the PowerSchool Parent Quick Guide link here for more information about how to navigate the PowerSchool portal. There is a mobile app version of the PowerSchool Portal for families. The interface of the mobile app is slightly different from the web version. If you experience any difficulties accessing PowerSchool, please email Mrs. Aparicio, the secretary who oversees PowerSchool for our Jackson families. Her email address is vaparicio@d45.org.
