Quarter Ends This Week....(Oct 13th, Grades posted by 2:00pm on Oct 16th)..... Remember IC is a little different this year!
This is just a reminder of the importance of getting grades in on time so that many other things can happen. Michelle has sent out information on how to correctly post grades, please check the link. (End of Quarter Grade Posting Procedures)
If you have questions please do not hesitate to ask or verify what others are saying with Michelle.
Posting grades are the first thing in a chain of events that must happen so that we as a school can effectively communicate with parents in a timely manner.
- Posted Grades are completed by all teachers (2:00 on Monday the 16th.)
- Michelle does final check (Monday afternoon the 16th)
- All Report Cards are printed (Monday Late Afternoon the 16th)
- Begin work on Breakfast of Champions (Tuesday morning the 17th)

If you need help or are finding yourself a little behind let us know, we will be glad to help out in any way!
