Make sure to check your student's academic progress on Q Connect. Quarter 1 marks the half way point for the semester. Grades are final when semester 1 concludes after Friday, December 19th. a few reminders:

  • Check grades on Q Connect under "Marks". Some teachers also use canvas for grades, but all official marking periods are communicated through Q Connect only.
  • Have your student email their teachers. This is a great skill to learn now before high school. Encourage your student to use their school email address. For reference this email is the students ID number followed by @learn.conejousd.net. ALL students have a school email address. It is important to communicate with your teachers about their grades early.
  • DO NOT WAIT UNTIL DECEMBER! Early intervention is key. Counselors will be communicating with students who have D/F grades as well.
  • Reminder for 8th graders- you must pass your classes by the end of the semester in order to be eligible for end of the year activities. DON'T DELAY- REACH OUT TO YOUR TEACHER TODAY.
