Update on Educate Student Information System


Parent Access Closed

On Friday April 24th Mr. Woods was informed by TADS that there was a problem with the system in a recent update. 
Report cards were linked with wrong student accounts and some parents were given total school access.
As of this afternoon TADS access for parents has been shut down until it can be assessed by the technology department of the Archdiocese.
Parents wishing to keep up to date with their child's progress during their on-line learning should request information from the teacher during their weekly call.

Mr. Woods will let parents know when the system is ready to be opened up again.


SuccessMaker

Mr. Woods reviewed the recent usage report on student progress for SuccessMaker.
He noticed a number of students who login to stay on for 2 or 3 minutes. 
 Other students have not logged in since January.
The teachers will be addressing the students during their interactions with them in the next week.
Mr. Woods will be sending out an IRIS alert to parents whose child is not up to date with their SuccessMaker work.
Teachers have been assigning SuccessMaker as part of homework/classwork and announcements about that may be found on the child's Google Classroom in Math/Reading or on the teacher's school blog.
Please remember DO NOT GOOGLE SuccessMaker. The school has a specific web address that teachers will have posted on their blog or on Google classroom.
 The teachers will also be to assist parents whose child consistently and persistently "loose" their login and password.
