Cove Creek Chronicle

Raider Families,

Attached below is a flyer for parents concerning the Parent Portal on Infinite Campus, our new student information systems program. If parents have questions, they may contact Mrs. Conny, our data manager, during normal school hours concerning how to find the activation key for any parents or guardians who do not receive the email. The anticipated email will include the words Infinite Campus, so please also check your spam folder or trash can to make sure you have not missed it. The email will explain the Parent Portal process and guide parents in completing all the beginning of the year forms online. Thank you so much for your patience. Please contact the school if you have any questions or need any assistance.
