Parents:

ParentLink: Very Important!

ALL student accounts have been distributed.

Parents: Please stop by our school to pick up

YOUR account....a valid ID is needed.

(Come directly to front desk....takes just a minute or two!)

____________________

ALL PARENT accounts (who have NEVER used ParentLink) have been totally re-generated and have been available since OPEN HOUSE.

This is the best tool for Parents to communicate with our school, CCSD and track your children's progress.

We HIGHLY encourage ALL Parents to use it!

_____________________


2nd Quarter has now started:

Grades will continue to flow into 1st QTR over the next few days.

2nd quarter will now "automatically" show as THE current quarter, when you log in to ParentLink.

To view 1st QTR ...use the "pull down" feature, and "go". This will give you a full display of quarter 1 grades.


As you log into your PARENT account....PLEASE go to
"my account". Scroll down to phone number AND especially e-mail address..... Click "add" and carefully enter the information. Enter ALL e-mails you want BUT, at least one. Be SURE to hit SAVE when completed...that's it!

Thank you, for your cooperation.. ALSO

Some truly wonderful updates for Parent Accounts and notification will be taking place on ParentLink from
Thursday late PM until (on the late side) 11/8.
This will interupt your ON-LINE service but NOT the telephone.

You'll love these NEW features...thanks for your patience!

Parents and Students!!

Our FIRST fundraiser is in full swing!

What a tasty selection of Candy Bars for the

super price of only $1.00 each!!!


LOOK OUT WAL-MART!


YES...we still have to sell a bunch to make

ends meet....but we're counting on your

always strong support, without breaking

anyone's bank. And remember...chocolate!

Congratulations is in order!


Burkholder HAS achieved AYP

(adequate yearly progress) as measured through

State/Federal required student testing.

Wow!! and we've JUST begun!

This takes GREAT teachers, students,

administrators and Parental support.

Thanks for all you do!!
