Parent Coffee: How to Make the Most of Your Childs Report Card:
On Tuesday, January 19th from 08:00 - 09:00, we will be hosting a last-minute MS Parent
Coffee. This will take place in the Little Theater. This week, several parents have stopped by the
office requesting additional information and guidance about how to interpret the upcoming report cards and would like guidance on how they can provide meaningful feedback to their child/
children. In response to this request, we have scheduled a session where we hope to answer
these important parent questions. While we appreciate it is short notice, we hope you can come
along if this topic is of interest to you. New parents to ISM this academic year, may find this Parent Coffee particularly helpful.
Report Cards:
Semester one report cards will be available for parents on January 20th, 2016 - you will be able to
access a pdf copy of the report card through the online parent portal and Power School, in advance of this we will send out a guide with screen shots that clearly explain how to access your
child's report cards. Please note that in the interest of being environmentally conscious, we will
not be sending out hard copies of the report card. Please contact the Middle School Office if you
have any questions.
