Dear Connect High Families,
As Student Led Conference Week comes to an end, we’d like to remind all families that your students day to day class assignments can be checked on Canvas and student grades can be checked on Powerschool. Teachers update grades every 4-5 weeks, the next grade update will be on April 8th.
(If you need help accessing Canvas or Powerschool please contact your students counselor or Jacob at jdiaz@davinschools.org).
All students have access to working directly with their teachers outside of their on-campus days through teacher’s office hours (via ZOOM). Click HERE to see our teachers office hour schedule and how students can make appointments.
And finally students can sign up to attend school on their off campus days each week. We do ask that students sign up as space is limited. Here is the asynchronous link sign up for the week of March 18th.

Unfortunately, if students do not sign up to attend they can not stay and will have to be picked up.
We apologize for having to postpone our last Coffee with Admin. We look forward to seeing you all after Spring Break on April 8th at 5pm for Coffee with Admin at 5pm. Here is the ZOOM link .
Take care,
Tami and Robert
