Step 1: If you do not already have a Google account, you may find it easier to communicate with us if you do. Google accounts are free and easily connect with all things school related. Go to Google.com and create one now.
Step 2: Remind is a communication tool for parents and teachers. You can sign up for your child's class reminds by clicking on the appropriate buttons below! (Each student should have one ELA/SS teacher, and one Math/ Science teacher- DO NOT SIGN UP FOR ALL FOUR REMINDS!)
Step 3: Please make sure that you have access to your child's grades via Parent Portal. You can locate this on the district website, LPSS. Click on the Parent Command Center. Then, you may select Parent Portal.
You may also click the button below.
Step 4: BOOKMARK THIS SITE! Having access to this site will be the key for success for the 2020-2021 school year! You can do this by selecting the empty star all the way to the right on the web address bar.
Step 5: Google Classroom for PARENTS- To make things just a bit easier, I have enabled Google Classroom's Guardian Summaries. What this will do is email you a confirmation where you will choose whether you would like a daily or weekly update on your student's progress in Google Classroom. THERE IS NO CODE NEEDED FOR THIS- just a proper email address! This will also streamline communication from teacher to parent because you have the ability to switch the email address you would like the information sent to.
Notes:
1) Google Classroom codes are for STUDENTS. The codes provided are for students to sign up for the class information and this code sets up the teacher's roster on Google Classroom. STUDENTS ONLY PLEASE!
2) Google Guardian Summaries are not meant to replace the Parent Portal. Guardian Summaries assist parents in making sure their child is completing the tasks that are assigned via Google Classroom.
