Concerned about your students grades?

Here are some tips to help your student stay on top of those grades -

Check your Skyward Family Access account often.  You can set customized options in your setting to send you alerts for missing assignments, failing grades, etc.


Check your student's Google Classroom pages with them for information on upcoming assignments, projects and tests.

Don't ask "Do you have any homework?" but instead, "Let's look at Skyward and Google Classroom together so you can tell me what you have been working on."

Need Math help? Use the parent tools in the top right side of your student's Digits account.

Need more Math help?  Try khanacademy.org

Have questions?  Never hesitate to email or call your student's teacher for clarification about assignments or assistance.
