The ability to monitor your
child's grades and any assignment information can now be securely viewed from
your Internet Browser at home. We are providing this access through our
Pinnacle Internet Viewer (PIV) feature. This secured access requires an
Internet connection and a confidential user name and password issued to the
parent by the school.
* The parent and student login and
password are confidential – Please, do not give the passwords to other people
or let your child use your parent password, each child has their own. The parents can set up email notifications
about improvement, missing assignments, or outstanding performance that are
sent directly to you.
* Please allow teachers time to
enter grades and scores into the gradebook. This may vary by teacher due to the
amount of work collected. When grades
are entered and an assignment is missing, it means it was due and not turned
in.
* Please check first with your child as to their
understanding of their assignments and how they are graded before contacting
the teacher.
* If you have any questions or
problems about this service, please contact Mr. Ron Gantvoort at (408) 522-8288
or ron.gantvoort@sesd.org
Sincerely,
8th Grade History Teachers
