Welcome to 6th Grade!
SUCCESS Tips for students
Check your grades at least twice a week.
Click on every class, scroll to the current date, and review your assignments, scores, and comments.
Write down any questions you have so you can ask your teacher.
Keep your supplies in your backpack.
We are not sharing any supplies at school, so make sure you always have what you need for class in your backpack.
If you're absent, find out what you need to do to make up the work.
Check Google Classroom for each of your classes.
Talk to a trusted classmate to fill you in on what you missed.
Ask your teacher if you have questions.
Make sure you turn in your make up work 2 days after your absence.
Come prepared to class.
Charge your device every night.
Know when assignments are due and keep track of your work.
Use online calendars to help.
YOU are the one who is responsible for your grades.
If you don't understand something or you need help on classwork, you need to talk to your teacher.
Know each teacher's late work policy. Some teachers accept it and some don't.
Success Tips for Families
Check your student's grades weekly.
Grades are checked in Infinite Campus. Your child should be able to explain their grades. If they have questions, have them talk to or email us.
Students with a D or F in any class will prompt an automated phone call from Bell.
Make sure your child is charging their device.
If your child is having difficulties in class, have them contact us to set up a meeting.
Help your child if they've been absent.
Many sixth graders have trouble figuring out what they need to do if they miss school. You can help by sitting with them and reviewing each classes' assignment. Information for most classes can be found in Google Classroom.
If you have questions that your child can't answer, feel free to contact the appropriate teacher.
Important Info:
D & F Autocaller: Teachers will post their grades to Weekly Eligibility on Thursdays. If your child has a D or F, the district autocaller will call to report this to you.
