Our first Marking Period is coming to an end on Friday, November 1st! Teachers will have grades finalized on November 6th and we will begin preparing to send report cards home (this usually takes about 2 days). We will be determining eligibility on November 6th. We will be sending an email and robocall to families if their student is ineligible.

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need help accessing grades through PowerSchool

Our Fall Parent-Teacher Conferences are being held the evening of November 7th, and the afternoon of November 8th. We will be sending online signups through a program called SignUp Genius. These will be coming to families via email on Monday and Tuesday of next week.

Please feel free to call the school if you have not received the emails by the end of the day Tuesday, or if you need assistance using the signup program.

Help support our community, as well as instill a strong sense of empathy and community involvement for our students, in our upcoming student food drive!
