You can always email me with questions, but the best way to see what we're doing in class and if your child has assignments coming up is by getting connected on the following two programs and by checking our POD 3 homework board which is updated daily!
This is where you will find student grades for math class.
Students will receive digital assignments and assessments in Schoology. This is also a great place to find notes keys and study reources.
