COMING UP THIS MONTH...
For most of our schools, the Summer Transition steps are completed and the new school year is underway. There is still one last important step to make sure your system is ready: Reviewing Report Cards!

Reviewing your report cards is a very important step and should be completed during these first few weeks of school.

This step involves looking over each grade level's report cards to make sure all courses, sub-categories, grade scales and layouts look correct. When you complete this step early in the school year, you help support your teachers by making sure they have what they need and reduce last minute report card corrections at the end of the grading period. Please note that ReportCard changes can take up to a week to process.
