Patriot Family,
Our second college information night is tomorrow, Monday, September 26 at 6:30pm in the Performing Arts Center (PAC). While geared toward juniors and their parents, anyone is welcome!
If you checked your mailbox this weekend, you probably noticed a Quarter 1 progress report for your student. While our students are growing in their independence in high school, progress reports are a good time to continue to provide the accountability and support our kids still need. I hope you can celebrate their effort in obtaining good grades! If your student has one or more low grades, pediatrician, Dr. Nolan, suggests “Getting to the root of the problem is the most important conversation you can have when you receive the report card. Asking questions and letting your child do the talking will put you both on the path to figuring out what can be done to help them get better grades.” (Source: Cleveland Clinic - 8 Tips for Talking About Bad Grades)
Your student’s success is a team effort; you and your student are the center of the team. So, have that conversation but please have your student reach out to their teacher or counselor. Teachers can be emailed from our website: https://liberty.kernhigh.org/apps/staff/

Link to Your Student's Canvas as a Parent Observer
Canvas is a Learning Management System that many teachers use to post assignments, collect assignments, and display grades. It is also a great location for students who are absent to find out what they missed. Parents can access their student's classes via Canvas to see the same information students see: announcements, assignments, and graded assignments.
