Weekly Message–July 26-30, 2021

Good Evening SCS Families. This is Ms. Price with your weekly message for the week of July 26.

Canvas is now up and syncing with PowerSchool. You should be able to see all of your courses on your Dashboard tomorrow. This is also where the Global Announcements will be sent daily. If you don’t see a course posted, check with that class period teacher. 

Tomorrow is the last day to request a schedule change. The link can be found on my blog and you must access it using your school email. 

If any student believes that they are in the incorrect advanced ELA/English or Math class according to their schedule, please email Ms. Taylor.

Also, all 7th and 8th graders that have been placed in math 1 for this year, please check your email to make sure you received the link which is a release form from Ms. Gray Taylor. If you have any questions or have not received the email, please email Ms. Taylor.  @ Ashley_taylor.dpsnc.net

Remember that students must wear masks at all times, except while eating lunch or socially distanced outside.  Students may ask for permission to use the mask break stations throughout the day. We encourage students to bring reusable water bottles to refill at the water fountains.  We are still socially distancing as much as possible. Please help us remind your children to follow the classroom and hallway procedures. Let’s keep each other safe. 

The DPS returning student registration portal is now open and ready for use. If you have a student who was in a DPS school last year, you will use the returning student registration portal to complete your child’s registration process for the 21-22 school year. There will be no paper registration packets. You may complete the registration process by going through your Parent Portal account, or, if you do not have a Parent Portal account, with a unique snapcode you can obtain via the email sent on 7/20/2021 to the address we have on file. If you do not have a parent portal account and did not receive an email with your unique snapcode, please contact the school directly at 919-560-3535 for assistance. Please note that the registration process CANNOT be completed using the PowerSchool mobile app. You must complete the process using the browser on your phone or computer. Please have this process completed by August 30.  Contact Ms. Fleming  for further assistance or questions regarding the return student registration portal.

If you still need to find your child’s bus information please use the Here’s the Bus App. The link is located on the DPS website. You will need your child’s PowerSchool ID number. You may contact Dr. Dixon, assistant principal, if you need assistance with your bus. 

All students may receive free breakfast and lunch this school year. We do ask that you complete the Free/Reduced Lunch Application forms because this assists with DPS receiving funding. 

We’re excited to be a site for Community Education Before School Care for middle school students. The applications are on the SCS website. 

Always check our website, my blog—Price’s Write, our Facebook page, and Twitter for frequent updates about what’s going on at SCS. 

Have a great evening from everyone at SCS where we practice the 4C’s–Creativity, Communication, Collaboration, and Community.

  1. Where can we find instructions on how to add a student to Canvas Parent accounts? We need a QR Code or Pairing Code. Where do we get this information?
