Parent Connect has been Discontinued

Dear Parents,

Those parents who had high and middle schoolers in our District in the past are aware of the fact that parents had the ability to sign up for a service called Parent Connect.  This allowed parents via their password to access the gradebook of their child’s teachers and keep current with their child’s scores throughout the grading period.  Please note that for the 2009-2010 school year Parent Connect no longer exists.  The District is updating the Student Management system to a new system called PowerSchool.  It is a gradual process to update the system and train all of the school personnel to use it properly.  During this transition we ask your patience.  We will not have the online parent portal ready for the first grading period, however we do hope to have it up and running shortly thereafter.  More information will be forthcoming as we move through the process.

Thanks for your understanding.
