Headphones Required
Our first graders have iPads that will stay on campus but used for instructional purposes. Please purchase your student a pair of headphones to keep at school if you have not already. Due to the classroom environment, if your child does not have headphones they may miss out on instructional activities on their device.
Please check in with your student often to make sure they have a working pair of headphones.

Amplify
Did you know that the Amplify Reading tool helps boost critical reading skills that student's may have? Or that it ties into skills and strategies that are tested within mClass?
Our campus has identified needs of students individually and collectively. There are many gaps that students have that we could use your help in closing so that they are more successful readers. It is imperative that the additional practice occurs also outside of the classroom, at home. Please use Amplify Reading as you find time fit throughout the week with your child.
When accessing Amplify from Classlink, your student will click on the Amplify icon from Classlink and then select the icon with the forest animals.
