WELCOME BACK TO THE 2024/2025 SCHOOL YEAR!
ACADEMY CONFIGURATIONS:
Although academy assignments will not be sent from Infinite Campus to parents and students until August 14th, here is some building-wide information on Academies/Teams due to student numbers and staffing:
Design, Empower and Flex are our multi-grade personalized learning academies.
Legacy Academy 6-1, Legacy Academy 6-2 and Legacy Academy 6-3 are 6th grade teams.
Legacy Academy 7-1, Legacy Academy 7-2 and Legacy Academy 7-3 are 7th grade teams.
Legacy Academy 8-1, Legacy Academy 8-2 are 8th grade teams.
Students on the Legacy Academies will be in core classes with only students in their grade level.
Please note that we do not move students to different teams as the schedule has already been set.
Celebrating Daily Attendance:
Every day at school is an opportunity for growth and connection. Consistent attendance is crucial for your child's success, and we are here to support you if any challenges arise. The expectation is that students will maintain at least a 90% attendance rate for the entire year.
Embracing a Focused Learning Environment:
Students are expected to fully engage in the amazing learning experiences that their teachers have developed for them. To support this, we are asking students to keep personal electronic devices at home, or locked in their locker. This approach will help everyone stay present, engaged, and make the most of learning opportunities. We appreciate your support in reminding your children about this.
New Personal Device Policy for the 24-25 School Year:
Please review the new personal device policy with your student. Starting this year, students will not be allowed to use their cell phones during the school day. If you need to reach your student during the school day there are a few options:
1. Send information via text, however you should not receive a response until after school.
2. Email your student using their school email address.
3. Leave a message with the front office 314-415-7865.
If your student needs to get a hold of you, they can:
1. Send an email.
2. Call from a classroom or office phone.

Student Infinite Campus Logins and Google Password Resets:
Student Infinite Campus Logins: We are making changes to improve students' Infinite Campus Students Portal access. All Student's K-12 Infinite Campus Portal logins will be changed to Google Single Sign-on. This means every student will be able to access their account with their Parkway-issued Google account. Communication will be going out to parents and students on August 9th. The Infinite Campus Student portal will be unavailable on August 13th and it goes live with Google SSO on August 14th.
Google Password Reset for Students: Technology will require all students in grades 5-12 to change their Google password. When students log into their accounts, they will simply be asked to change their password. New password changes will go into place on August 14th.
