Please be sure to check out the school calendar for the month. http://www.seton-school.com/parents-2/school-calendar-2/

Remember, you can contact me anytime via email at paross@seton-school.com and I will get back to you as soon as possible. There are other means of communication to help keep you up to date on your child's assignments, grades and activities. Our school website contains information such as school calendars, handbook, teacher websites and much more. Check it out at [|www.seton-school.com]. You can find daily assignments and parent information on my wiki page at http://pross2.wikispaces.com. I try very hard to keep this updated daily so that you can see what assignments are due. When there are long term projects, I attach a link so that you can access that information as well. Students are strongly encouraged to keep track of their daily assignments by using some type of assignment book because they are ultimately responsible for completing assignments on time whether or not it has been posted on the wiki page. You can also access your child's grades on our teacherease program at http://www.teacherease.com/ As per Mrs. Blake: Parents are able to access students’ grades through our online data base, TeacherEase. New families were sent a welcome email in August. If you are unsure how to log-into TeacherEase, please use this link [] . Your user-name is the email provided to the office. If you have forgotten your password, please log-in and request a new password be sent to your email. Once your password has been reset, log-in using the link provided.

__Friday Folders__ - Each Friday students will be given a folder to bring home with a variety of information. Please take some time to look through and sign the folder before returning it to school on Monday. Folders may include the following:
 * Important messages from the teacher
