Teacher Notes:

Some of the student’s are out of pencil and paper, please ask them if they need any. They are forgetting about it when they get home.

If you could not make the training session held in the fall or spring to get the password for your child’s grades on the new internet system, you can come into the office and receive the password. It must be picked up by legal guardian. The website is pretty easy to use. This will help you keep track of your child’s grades.
