A Great Start!
We are off to a great start at Gates Mills Elementary! These past two days our students have been busy learning classroom expectations, modeling appropriate behavior and getting to know one another. We are so excited for our kindergartners to join our Gates Mills Family next week!
In Mayfield, we believe in a personal, All-Access approach to learning, and this week was truly an example of that. Please take a moment to watch the video below to learn more about our All-Access approach to learning and the type of environment we strive to create for our students. We can't wait to see what is in store for our Gates Mills Family this year!
Annual ORL Update
ALL students receiving a Chromebook will need to have this completed by their parent/guardian BEFORE their assigned 1:1 device release night. (See schedule here)
Annual Update OLR is the electronic process for parents to go into the Infinite Campus Parent Portal in order to update and confirm all student data that is currently in our system. This must be completed for each student even if there are NO changes. You will need to go through each step and click submit. This MUST be done BEFORE the first day of school. For step by step instructions, please see the link below.
Annual Update OLR Instructions
It is recommended to use Windows IE 11, Firefox or Safari. Windows must be Windows 7 or later. Annual Updates cannot be done via a handheld device (iOS or Android).
