Superintendent's Student Advisory Council meets and attends Infinite Campus workshop

The Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council met with Superintendent of Schools Dr. Waveline Bennett-Conroy and cabinet members Dr. Beverley Jones and Ms. Marci Tiggs to review academic progress and share their learning and reading experiences this past month. The group of scholars from multiple schools and grade levels also attended an Infinite Campus workshop at the Education Center on Wednesday, November 16, 2022. 

The students had an opportunity to review the features and information available on the student portal of Infinite Campus with the Chief Information Officer and Director of Technology Mr. Carlos Ramirez.  Students explored their schedules and their calendar of activities and tasks. Students also have access to deadlines and reminders at their fingertips, and they can access the grade book and get real-time updates on assignments, progress reports, and report cards.

Students were introduced to the Student Portal App for Android and IOS to make mobile access more seamless. Students having a firm grasp on the student portal will make it easier for teachers to connect with students and families, and it allows parents to have greater involvement in their child's education.
