• Marking Period 1 Grades

  Marking Period 1 Grades are available online via NYC Schools account and report cards have been mailed out. 

  Any student who earned an NX means that they did not meet the course requirements. It is not too late to improve on the grades. Students who earned an NX for the first marking period will need to work very hard during Marking Period 2 and 3 to ensure a passing grade for the term (semester), which ends on January 29, 2021.

  If you have any questions about a grade, please contact your child's teachers via email. You will find email addresses by visiting the Faculty and Staff Directory.

  Our guidance counselors and Single Shepherds are also available to assist families in providing academic support.

• Upcoming Parent Meetings: THIS Wednesday, October 21st

  Dear Parents,

  We've observed the attendance data, and our "Remote Only" Learning Preference requests have increased significantly since September. As such, I would like to introduce a new model that I think would benefit our hybrid students. During the meetings on Wednesday, October 21st at 5:00 PM and at 6:00 PM, I will present Blended Learning Model 1B, along with an exception that will help support student achievement by offering targeted academic support.

  Please join either the SLT meeting at 5:00 PM or the Parent Association Meeting at 6:00 PM if you are available to attend. Links to join the meeting can be found on the calendar.

Be sure to use the Bell Schedule to ensure you log into your remote classes on time. Synchronous portion of the class will take place during the first 15 minutes of class.

  Lastly, all students were invited into an Attendance Google Classroom ["SY 20 Daily Attendance: Remote" OR "SY 20 Daily Attendance: Hybrid"]. Please be sure to mark your attendance daily. Your attendance will be verified by your teachers, who will confirm whether or not you attended the synchronous portion of their classes. Try your best to start the school year STRONG!
