The importance of parent and teacher communication cannot be overstated. This is one of the most important factors in a child's education. Parents are a critical link in re-enforcing the skills and concepts taught by the teachers in the classroom.

It is important as parents to know and understand the expectations of your child's teachers and to monitor assignments. Parent-teacher conferences and open houses are excellent opportunities to meet with your child's teachers and receive regular feedback about your child's performance.

If you have a concern about your child's education at St. Patrick, please first discuss the matter with the teacher, then the principal, and then the Executive Director.

This Week @ St. Patrick Newsletter

Each Friday students will bring home a newsletter with the next week's activities, announcements, and reminders. Families may find it helpful to stick this on the refrigerator door throughout the week.

Student Progress Area

Parents can check the online Student Progress Area to access their child's grades, assignments, attendance, etc. whenever they like. Students may also check their progress using this system.

Currently, the system provides information for students in grades 4 through 8 since primary grades use a different grading system. Parents of children in grades K-3 may login, but will not find complete grade information

For security reasons, parent accounts are set up by the principal. Parents will need to provide their email address to the teacher or school. Your email address will be your login when accessing the area.

Information from School

Students may be given papers with information on events and activities, and any other details that your family needs to know. There may also be forms that need to be completed, signed, and returned to school. Other information from your child's teacher may be sent home daily. Please check folders, book bags and/or assignment pads daily for notes from school and your child's teachers.
