Hopefully you've had a chance to check out our new website and app. As we continue to tweak things I wanted to share with you where you can find some of the resources from the old site. If you select Menu from the top right of the screen, it will pop up with various pages. Underneath each of these pages is a drop down menu. If you are looking for PowerSchool, you will find it under Parent/Student Resources for either JH/HS or the elementary. Our plan is to have a quick link at the bottom of the front page to make that easier to find. Please be patient with us as we make these changes.
