January 30, 2024 – students will be visiting Beaverbrook for a tour

 

Should you have any questions regarding the process of registering for high school, please reach out to your child’s teacher.

 

Report Cards:

By January 30th, parents and guardians will be able to view student report cards in your MyCBE account. The report card is one of the ways teachers communicate how your child is progressing in their learning. Teachers may also communicate learning progress through parent/teacher conferences, your child’s daily work and assignments, and other ongoing communication with you. One of the primary tools used at MPS is Brightspace by D2L. We recommend that parents sit together with their child to review each of their classes in Brightspace. Here, you will see updates on weekly assignments, content and resources. As always, don’t hesitate to reach out to your child’s teachers with any questions or concerns at any point in the school year.  

 

Yearbooks:

Our 2023 2024 Yearbooks are now available for purchase. 

We have created a YouTube tutorial to help you pay fees and purchase yearbooks on your PowerSchool parent account.  Following is a link to the video. https://youtu.be/Kx35I3PwVt8

 

 

Fees:
