Hello Students & Parents / Guardians, 35 week progress report grades are now available for students in grades 8-12 to view, and parents / guardians of students in 6-12 using the Parent Portal. Schooltool link: https://schooltool2.neric.org/schooltool_COLT/ The username is the email address you provided to the school. If you have forgotten your password, you may click "login" with the password field blank, and you will be prompted to reset your password. Paper copies of the progress reports will be mailed home if you notified the office that you would like a paper copy. The 5 week grades are meant to give students an idea of their progress in their courses, and possibly show areas that need improvement. Students are reminded to check their Google classrooms and email multiple times a day in order to complete all responsibilities. If your student is having difficulty with organization or prioritization, please let us know and we can work together to make a plan for improvement. If your student is failing a course then EACH WEEK of the next five weeks, s/he will need to check in with the teacher to assess progress, and to stay after school for extra practice, if needed, in order to be eligible for extracurricular school activities. If you have any questions or concerns regarding your / your student's grades or progress, please do not hesitate to contact us. Best, Mrs. McKinley
