Google Classroom and Quaver Music

This year all I will be using "Google Classroom" to submit, review, and grade student work. The Music Google Classroom can be found on your child's computer, the same way they look up their other classes. All Grove parents and students are strongly encouraged to check their grade level Google Classroom for work/homework/practice the student should be doing. Your child has been issued a Quaver Music User Name and Password. They must have this in order for them to use the Quaver Music computer curriculum.
