To access your grades, click the Grading tile. The grades screen shows your current grade in each of your classes for each quarter of the school year (term 1, term 2, term 3, and term 4) as well as overall grades for semesters 1 and 2. You can also see the number of assignments missing, if any.

Click a grade to open the progress report panel at the right of your screen. This panel shows a breakdown of assignments by category and your grades for those assignments.

You can view grades for a limited range of previous academic years by clicking the Academic History tile.

High school students can see progress towards graduation by selecting the Graduation Plan tile from their Student Access dashboards.

The Graduation Plan screen displays credits required, completed, in-progress (currently scheduled), waived and remaining.

There are ten credit areas for high school students: English, Social Studies, Math, Science, Health, Physical Education, Fine Arts, Career and Technical Education, World Language and General (Electives).  Some of these areas include specific course requirements.  

More details on the courses that have met an area can be found by clicking on the round blue arrow icon beside each subject area.

Students' report cards and unofficial transcripts are available in Skyward Student Access under Portfolio. Click the Portfolio tile to enter this section, then click the eye icon beside a file you wish to view, or click the arrow icon to download it.

Unofficial transcripts are updated three times a year (after semester one, after semester two, and at the end of September). 

Secondary students can view their weekly course schedules by clicking the Schedule tile. From here you can print your schedule.

When scores for standardized tests such as the SBA or WCAS are uploaded, you can view them in the Test Results section of your Skyward account. Click the blue arrow icon to view your scores.

Click the Transportation tile to view your bus route and schedule. Please note bus drop-off times are 1.5 hours earlier on Wednesdays. For more information see the district transportation page.
