Champaign County Science Fair Results
Congratulations to all our students who participated in the Champaign County Science Fair last week. It takes a lot of work to complete the project, but also courage to present it to the judges, and for that we are proud. Adelyn Guidera, Alice Rogers, Colten Taylor, Piper Jacobs, Bella Black, Mackenzie Crooks, Samuel Bodey, Lily Parke, Alaina Lockwood, Hannah Smith, Lucy Rodgers, Juliana Williams, Mallorie Erter, Jenna Johnston, Carly Birchfield, Vander James, and Myles Wilson all participated.
Earning a “Superior” rating and qualifying to the Regional Science Fair at Edison State were Jenna & Carly, Mallorie, Mackenzie, and Piper.
Myles and Vander also received an award for their persistence throughout their project.

Stay up-to-date on Student Grades with Progress Book
Students all have access to Progress Book via their Clever logins. Parents can access through the same login they would have used last year. Any new families should have received an access key on Friday via email from Mr. Guidera.
Frontline Education has released the Progress Book Parent and Student Mobile App (aka Parent Access app) to the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. This app is available for your parents/students to download and use now. For those that choose to download, the app takes the place of the mobile web version of Parent Access that parents and students have long used. In addition, Frontline has produced an overview video that can be shared with your users.
