WEEKLY PROGRESS REPORTS

Beginning the week of October 17, 2016 all parents of MS and HS students who have registered for a SIS Parent Account and have a primary email address recorded in SIS will begin receiving Weekly Progress Reports. You can login to your SIS Parent account now to verify that you have a primary email address within the system. It is listed under the My Account tab. If it is blank, enter the email address where you would like to receive the progress reports and click on update account.  

Weekly progress reports for all of your middle and high school students will be included in one email. FCPS elementary schools do not use the SIS gradebook and therefore are not included in these reports. 

For questions about a specific progress report or grade you can login into your SIS Parent Account to find detailed gradebook information. Additionally, your student’s teacher is always the best resource to answer any gradebook questions that you may have.
