Starting Tuesday morning, I will run the missing grades for elementary schools and email administrators the issues so that they can follow-up; once the reports are complete, I will process these report&nbsp;cards by sending the info to&nbsp;ParentConnect&nbsp;2. Starting Wednesday, I will run the missing grades reports for middle schools and email administrators the issues so that they can follow-up; once the reports are complete, I will process the report&nbsp;cards and&nbsp;GPAs&nbsp;3. Once grades are finalized, I will then post them online (ParentConnect, Student Connect). I will do my best to try to have the grades posted by the end of the day Friday but it may be early next week as this process may take a bit longer than usual given that the Computer Services staff is not working except me. I will keep you updated of the progress during the week.<br>Questions:1. Would you like me to add a general message in&nbsp;ParentConnect&nbsp;for all Elementary and Middle schools such as&nbsp;<em>Marking Period 3 grades have been generated based on assignments and assessments available<\/em>&nbsp;or something similar? Shannon, Jill and&nbsp;Fatme, please email me if you wish one general message that I can include for all.2. Once the grades are available, should David send a&nbsp;robocall&nbsp;for Elementary and Middle Schools? Or should teachers just add on their bogs?<br>Following is the information that parents can see in&nbsp;ParentConnect.&nbsp;Administrators can view similar data and more options by accessing&nbsp;MIStar&nbsp;Menu\/ Enrollment \/ Student Profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>ParentConnect&nbsp;Module<\/td><td>How it relates to Report Cards<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Attendance Detail Information<\/td><td>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Attendance Summary Information<\/td><td>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cafeteria Information<\/td><td>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Class Assignment Information<\/td><td>This module represents the&nbsp;Gradebook&nbsp;information.
