Connecting to the Classroom
In High School, students, teachers and families use Schoology to track class materials, assignments, turned-in work, daily grades, and class calendars.
These connections bring families into the classroom and provide an ongoing snapshot of how and what your student is doing in school.
Schoology (Grades 4-12)
Schoology connects students to their teachers. Students get class assignments, link to readings and guides selected by their teacher, collaborate with classmates, and work on self-paced learning activities. Families can see upcoming assignments and announcements, view assignments, test schedules and daily grades for current classes, and more.
Student Devices (Chromebooks)
All K-12 students will receive a district-issued Chromebook, charger and case to take home in order to access learning. Students use varying models of Chromebooks depending on grade level. These devices provide students access to the internet, their Google accounts and other web-based applications, including district resources such as Seesaw and our online learning system, Schoology.
