Hi CAMom -

I do have access to online grades, which is helpful But they are not updated that frequently (I'm pretty sure my son's homeroom teacher has only done it 2x this year). That's not a big deal, but I find it difficult to cross reference the items described with the items I've seen in the agenda and that is frustrating. A master list describing assignments using consistent language would be helpful. The grades aren't my main concern, though. It's getting the information I need to facilitate my son's learning.

Thank you for your perspective. The woman who sits next to me just told me that a private school she is looking at posts all homework assigments online. What she was describing sounds similar to your school.
