Summer Reading & Literary Festival
Over the summer, students, you lose some of the learning progress you make during the school year. In order to help slow down that loss, we're inviting you to keep your brain growing over the summer!

This year, we're broadening our scope and giving you so many choices. Not only can you pick your book, but you might choose to read and respond to something that is not even a book! Check out your options, and come prepared the first week of school to register your project and earn a ticket to our first ever literacy festival. Have a great summer!

Home Access Center (HAC)
When you are viewing grades in the Home Access Center, please pay attention to the drop down window that allows you to choose which "run" you would like to view. Please be sure to select "All Runs" if you want to see the average for the semester. If you choose "1" or "2," it will only calculate the grade for that grading period. Since grades for non-Connections courses are calculated by semester, not quarter, "All Runs" will give you the correct average.
