Price's Write

Good Evening SCS Families. This is Ms. Price with your Weekly Message for the week of September 14.

Our Virtual Curriculum Night will be held Thursday, September 17 from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. The links to the teachers’ classrooms will be live at 6:00 p.m Thursday in Canvas on the Global Announcements. So you will need to have access from your child’s account or you will need to have set up your parent observer account. Please make sure you have your child’s schedule and plan to rotate to a new class approximately every 15 minutes. 

Please make sure your seniors are attending their scheduled senior meetings.  Mrs. Settle has had several students miss their meetings and their participation is mandatory.  Please check with your student and have them reschedule if they missed their meeting.  

Carolinas Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers virtual college exploration event will be held September 14th-October 9th.  Students will have the opportunity to participate in several events related to the college admission process.  Registration information for these events can be found on Mrs. Settle’s website.

Clubs will begin soon. Students should listen to morning announcements and register for the Clubs Canvas page when it is available. 

Emails were sent out in the beginning of August with instructions on how to access and complete your child’s online registration. DPS has moved to a digital platform for registration and enrollment and this was rolled out in August. The district would like for every family to complete online registration for their students so that we have the most up to date and current information for your child’s PowerSchool record. If you have not already done so, please use the access information found in that email sent at the beginning of August and go online to complete your child’s digital registration for the 2020-2021 school year. If you cannot find the email or if you did not receive one, please contact the school and give us a valid email address so that we can send you your personalized registration codes. Thank you in advance for your assistance in completing this very important registration process for your child!

Our AIG Facilitator, Ms. Gray Taylor, is requesting that all AIG parents fill out a brief form to gather information on her Google form. The permissions have now been corrected so you can access the document. Thanks to all of you who tried to complete it last week. Please take a moment to complete the form and read her introduction letter on the SCS website.

The directions for creating a Canvas Parent Observer Account can be found at canvas.dpsnc.net.  There you will find step-by-step written directions, a video explanation, Canvas Observer Guide and information for downloading the mobile app.  

Parents, you may send your absence notes to scs_maindesk@dpsnc.net. 

I’d also like to invite you to my first session of Pop in with Price. I plan to hold these sessions periodically so parents can meet with me to discuss what’s on your mind or a specific topic that will be announced in advance.  The first session will be held Saturday, September 19 at 10:00 a.m. and the topic is open.  I’ll put the Zoom link in the Global Announcements. Pop in and let’s chat. 

Have a good evening from all of us at SCS where we practice the 4 C’s – Creativity, Communication, Collaboration, and Community.
