Welcome back to our NSW Parent Portal.. We are grateful to the Growing Place for hosting our trial run on ParentSquare while we were working online upon our onsite closing on March13th. When they reached out to say they were starting fresh for their school year, we needed to decide how to best move forward in our posts/communication to keep us all connected. Before our closure, our Tech Team of parents worked with Roleen, Kris, and Katy to brainstorm together about how to combine all our needs into one system (online applications, website links, readable posts. . .) and we are seeing the value of maintaining and further developing our NSW Parents Portal within a workable budget.
It is our desire that we maintain one place for communication so we will no longer be using Parentsquare or Slack and we are eager to get back to our NSW Parents Portal again and begin the school year with a clean fresh start.
All the information from those sites is archived and available. All of your child’s experiences (on ground and online) are documented in their portfolios. If you’re missing something, let your teacher know and Kris can also support you. Here are links to those sweet Zoom meeting memories. Passwords are venice1987
