I encourage students and parents to check grades in PowerSchool. It is always helpful to make sure the grade matches what the student is expecting. If it doesn't, have the student come and see me during conference.
Let's make the second semester a great one! We will follow many of the same procedures as the first semester. I will be available again most days after school as well as during conference periods should students need extra help.
