Class Placement 2023/24

Last Week in Chapel

Last week in chapel we focused on a healthy biblical perspective to the question "WHO am I?".  We learned that we are each His masterpiece and called to do special things. Through the story of Samuel anointing David as King, we learned that God calls ordinary people to do extraordinary things for His Kingdom. As we embrace the truth of who we are through God's eyes we see Him do amazing things in our lives!

Power Verse: Ephesians 2:10 "For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago."

Whatchgaddaaknow?: I Am Special, And I Matter to God!"

Staying Informed and Up-to-date with

Classroom Happenings

To stay informed of what’s happening in your child’s classroom, please login into Blackbaud weekly. You will be able to see information such as weekly classroom announcements, upcoming events, weekly academic focus, grades, attendance, etc. This is the key to staying informed and replaces hardcopy newsletters. I encourage you to login each week. Information will be updated each Sunday at 5pm.

Accessing your child's class information weekly:

  • Login to your Blackbaud account and select your child's name under "Children". 

  • Find your child's homeroom class under the "Progress" tab by scrolling down to where classes are listed.

  • After selecting the homeroom class, you will see the teacher's main class page where you will locate upcoming dates, class reminders and news. 

  • Select the "Topics" tab to see specific information for each individual subject. Within each subject folder, you will see a plan for the week and upcoming projects and test information.

  • The "Topics" pages update each Sunday evening at 5pm and will remain current until the following Sunday evening.
