Hello Glennwood Families,
Happy New Year and welcome back to school! I hope everyone enjoyed the break and had lots of time with family! My kids and I really enjoyed our time with my parents and family in Massachusetts, where I grew up.
We would like to inform you that the much-anticipated moment has arrived! The semester's report card for your child will be available for viewing on our online portal starting today, January 4th at 3:00 PM.
We encourage you to log in to the portal to access your child's academic progress and achievements. The report cards will provide valuable insights into their performance throughout the semester, highlighting areas of success and areas that may need additional attention. If you need a refresher, please use this link for directions on how to use Infinite Campus to view the report card.
Thank you for your ongoing support and involvement in your child's education. Every day, I feel so fortunate to be here with you at Glennwood. Please, always reach out with anything that you need or are wondering about. I am always here to chat or answer questions.
Warmest regards,
Dr. Holly Brookins
Principal
