Keep Up with Grades & Attendance

Lots of information in one place!
Infinite Campus Parent Portal contains information about announcements, grades (for secondary students), attendance, outstanding fees & fines, lunch balance, and a place to update household and contact information.
Remember, you can always reach your child's teacher if you have questions by emailing them at "firstname_lastname@engschools.net". Each school also has a staff directory link in their Discover menu that contains contact information by grade, subject or name.

Need some ideas for getting kids to do their homework? The National Association of School Psychologists has compiled
a guide to help parents problem-solve some homework difficulties.
The guide includes these 4 steps:
Step 1: Find a location in the house where homework will be done.
Step 2: Set up a homework center.
Step 3: Establish a homework time.
Step 4: Establish a homework schedule.
The guide also includes information about incentive systems, to use with kids for whom "good grades" are not a sufficient reward for doing homework.
