Grades
Our grades from LGPE, the 6th grade field trip, and more will begin going into the gradebook. A “Missing” assignment in Infinite Campus will come across as a zero until the student has made up the assignment. Please help your student with their make up work in order to keep their grades where they should be. Be on the lookout and let me know if you have any questions.
