The purpose of formal notification of grades at scheduled times is to inform the parents and students of the progress which the students are making. Parents will be notified by “School Messenger” at the mid- point of each grading period so that they can go on the school website through the “Home Access Center” and view their child’s “Mid-term Progress Report”. Parents will be notified again at the end of each quarter (the school year is divided into four quarters) by the Blackboard system for the purpose of viewing their child’s “End-of-the Quarter” grades, as well as semester grades at completion of the 2nd and 4th quarters. Parents who do not have access to the internet can contact the high school office to make alternate arrangements to receive reporting information on their child.
