PowerSchool Information
Dear Parents, We are very pleased this year to be using PowerSchool with the ParentPortal capability. The purpose of the ParentPortal is to facilitate conversations with your child about their school work. Questions about individual assignments should be discussed with your child. Please understand that grades are updated weekly. In many cases, the grade is posted before the student receives the work back. Before contacting a teacher about a specific assignment, please ask your child to see the work. It is important to note that sixth grade is a year of extreme growth in many ways. As teachers, we are stretching your child’s learning. It is normal and expected for children to have difficulties with some assignments. Please remember that a low score on a few assignments does not have a significant impact on a student’s grade. To foster learning and develop independence, students should be encouraged to ask their teachers questions about their assignments. This is the most effective way to impact their learning and begin the transition to being responsible, life-long learners.
Sincerely, The Sixth Grade Team HOMEROOM INFORMATION
