We have officially entered our first Progress Reporting period, and we are halfway through Quarter 1 already. Updated Progress grades should be ready for your viewing by Friday. If you have questions and/or your student needs extra support, please reach out to the teacher for assistance. Extra help is offered daily for 45 minutes during Enrichment, by small groups in class, and/or is available during lunch. Some teachers provide assistance after school, as well. We are here to support your student!
