Dear Middle School Parents,
You should have received an email with the instructions to access the second-trimester report. Please take the time to thoroughly look through the trimester report and read the student reflection from your child and feedback from the teachers. It should provide you with more information of what your child is doing well and what s/he needs to work on for the next trimester. Should you have any questions about any of the classes, please feel free to contact the subject teacher. In case you missed the email, here are the links:
The instructions for accessing Middle School Reports are provided below, in both a text document and a video.
