Bienvenidos nuevamente a nuestras familias y estudiantes de Plankinton:
Esperamos ver todos los pasillos llenos de estudiantes, emocionados de comenzar un nuevo año escolar.
Nos gustaría compartir con ustedes algunos cambios para el próximo año escolar.
La hora de inicio diaria será a las 8:10 am. Tenga en cuenta que esto es 5 minutos antes que en los últimos años.
Pasaremos a un horario de orientación para los grados 6-12. Será el 8 de agosto. Consulte el cronograma adjunto para saber cuándo usted y sus estudiantes pueden venir a revisar sus computadoras, iniciar sesión, encontrar sus casilleros, completar la documentación, hacer preguntas, crear un portal para padres en el campus, etc.
La jornada de puertas abiertas también será la noche del 8 de agosto. También estamos introduciendo un nuevo formato para la jornada de puertas abiertas. Por favor vea la invitación adjunta. Las familias de primaria podrán recoger y dejar paquetes de información esta noche.
Estamos pasando a una solicitud de inscripción/registro de hogares en línea. Enviaremos una notificación cuando esté disponible y sea accesible para las familias, con instrucciones, antes del 8 de agosto.
También ofreceremos una opción de pago en línea este próximo año escolar. Enviaremos una notificación cuando esté disponible y sea accesible para las familias, antes del 8 de agosto.
Ambas nuevas oportunidades en línea requerirán que las familias creen un Portal para padres en el campus. Si ya tienes uno, ¡fantástico! Si no lo hace y no está seguro de cómo crear uno, habrá asistencia disponible durante el día de orientación o jornada de puertas abiertas, o puede llamar a la oficina de la escuela en cualquier momento para obtener ayuda.
Tuyo en educación,
Lezlie Larsen

We will be moving to an orientation schedule for grades 6-12. It will be on August 8th. Please see the attached schedule for when you and your students can come to check out their computers, log in, find their lockers, complete paperwork, ask questions, create a campus parent portal etc.
Open House is also on the evening of August 8th. We are introducing a new format for open house, as well. Please see the attached invitation. Elementary families will be able to pick up/drop off information packets this evening.
We are moving to an online household enrollment/registration application. We will push out a notification when it goes live and accessible to families, with instructions, prior to August 8th.
We will be offering an online payment option, as well, this next school year. We will push out a notification when it goes live and accessible to families, prior to August 8th.
Both of the new online opportunities will require families to create a Campus Parent Portal. If you already have one, fantastic! If you do not and are not sure how to create one, assistance will be available on orientation/open house day, or you can call the school office at any time for assistance.
Yours In Education,
