Programación YMCA y después de la escuela
El programa extracurricular de las Escuelas Comunitarias de la YMCA todavía tiene vacantes para estudiantes de 1.° a 6.° grado. Haga clic aquí para obtener más información si está interesado en programar para su estudiante. Los programas YMCA CSI consisten en Reflect and Connect (SEL), Homework Help (académico/estudio), Fitness Fun (educación física) y un programa de enriquecimiento (varía día a día), así como programas asociados. YMCA CSI en Boone se ha asociado con una organización local, Music House, para ofrecer a los estudiantes oportunidades de aprender nuevas habilidades artísticas, que culminarán al final del año con una actuación.
También hay varios programas dirigidos por maestros y personal de Boone. Más detalles sobre estos programas también están disponibles aquí. Comuníquese con Josh Fidler jfidler@ymcachicago.org si tiene alguna pregunta.
Parente Portal
Si ya tiene una cuenta en el Portal para padres, pero tiene problemas técnicos (contraseña olvidada, bloqueo, etc.), envíe un correo electrónico al coordinador técnico de Boone, Patrick Chi (ptchi@cps.edu) para que pueda restablecer su cuenta. Una vez que se restablezca su cuenta, debería recibir un correo electrónico de Aspen con más instrucciones. Se puede encontrar información adicional proporcionada por el distrito en este enlace.
Parent Portal
Parent Portal gives parents the ability to view students' grades in real time. If you are setting up your Parent Portal account for the first time, please visit the First Time Parent Portal Set-Up link. This is a one-time step and not necessary after every school year. Once you receive your email from Aspen to help set up your username and password, you can access Parent Portal at Aspen Parent Portal.
If you already have a Parent Portal account, but are running into technical issues (forgot password, locked out, etc), please email Boone's tech coordinator Patrick Chi (ptchi@cps.edu) so he can reset your account. Once your account is reset, you should receive an email from Aspen with further instructions. Additional information provided by the district can be found at this link.
