Jupiter Grades Parent Guide Workshop Presented by Nicole

Jupiter Grades Parent Guide Workshop Presented by Nicole Rini, Parent Coordinator with Ms. Ditta and Mrs. Govier (School Staff of 119 Q)

What is Jupiter Grades? A link for teachers to notify students and parents of assignments and assessments as they are being planned and graded

Why we are using Jupiter Grades In response to parents and teachers who requested a better method of communicating between school and home Real time access in all formats (computer, hand held devices and smartphones)

Notifications Two-way communication offering notification by email and/or text between teachers and parents/students Based on preferences in the set up, you can choose the method and frequency of the notices

What about echalk? We will be moving away from the posting of assignments and class specific information on echalk (psis 119. org) We will use echalk for the school calendar and general schoolwide information

How to set up an account in Jupiter Grades Your child will be provided a username and password for you to set up to access their account Please be sure to include ALL contact information so that it is used optimally Once you sign up, you do not have to do so EVER AGAIN
