Spartan Update
Home of the Spartans -9/7-9/11
Spartan Families and Community Members,
Attendance Matters
One of the most critical factors in student success is consistent attendance. Being present in school every day helps students stay engaged, connected, and ready to benefit from everything Spoto has to offer from academics to athletics, clubs, and extracurricular programs.
Parents and students, your support in this area is essential. Please make attendance a top priority because when Spartans show up, Spartans succeed.
Partnership with Families
We know that education is a partnership between school and home, and we are so grateful for your continued support. We want every Spartan to feel valued, supported, and inspired to do their very best.
This year, we are excited to welcome even more parent and community involvement. Whether through our booster organizations or our efforts to relaunch a PTSA, there will be many opportunities to get involved, stay connected, and help shape the future of our school community.
Let’s work together to make this an incredible year of growth, learning, and achievement for every
Spartan.
Thank you for being part of the Spoto family. Let’s make 2026-2027 our best year yet!

Parents and guardians will continue to access Canvas for current class grades, assignments, and communication with teachers. Focus will sync parent accounts from Focus to Canvas within 24 hours of creation. Parents will use the same email to login to Canvas but must set a password before logging in the first time. To set a Canvas password, please access the Canvas Reset Password page.
In short, Canvas is the day-to-day hub for instruction. Teachers can post assignments, quizzes, and class discussions while integrating curriculum resources and academic tools. Teachers may provide valuable assignment feedback that is viewable by both students and parents. Students and parents can also respond to feedback directly in Canvas. Canvas Parent accounts can be created 24 hours after activating Focus.
Focus is used by schools for enrollment, scheduling, attendance, transcripts, final grade reporting, and certain other student information. Parents will be able to view report cards, attendance, class schedules, course history, test history, and some student information as appropriate.
