Have you checked the online gradebook yet?

Just a reminder, it is never too early to check your school's online gradebook but it can sometimes be too late!  Our school has been in session for a little over a full week, yet just yesterday we started hearing from teachers that some students were already missing 2 or 3 assignments.  It is very easy for kids to fall behind and often impossible for them to catch up because we - the adults -  find out about it too late.  If your school does not require teachers to post grades on a weekly basis, we recommend you send a weekly email to inquire whether your child has any late/missing assignments and find out what is ahead for the next week.  Communication between home and school is crucial to the success of students at any level, k-12.
