Progress reports:

  • We have encountered an issue with generating Quarter 1 Progress Reports. These will be sent home as soon as the issue is resolved. Please note that you can view your student’s Quarter 1 grades on Schoology. These grades are accurate and up to date. You can access grades by going to the home page, looking at "Enrollments", and clicking on each class to access the Mastery Grades. To review any Quarter 1 classes, change the “Enrollments” item from “Current” to “Past”, and click on any past classes. If you have still not created your parent account on Schoology, please email Mrs. Bootsma at cbootsma@weareuca.org.
