Homeroom Assignments
Homeroom assignments will be available on PlusPortals on Friday, August 9th, 2024 once updates for the 2024-2025 academic year have been completed. A separate message will be sent when PlusPortals is ready with this updated information.
PlusPortals
PlusPortals is used to communicate all information about students and school. It will provide access to the school calendar, student progress (grades 3-8), and access to forms and handbooks.
All new families will receive an invitation email from PlusPortals with instructions to create an account and password at the beginning of the school year. Returning families can access PlusPortals with your existing accounts and passwords.
Lunch Accounts
We are happy to announce that Miami Prime Catering will continue to be onsite to provide their catering service to our students and staff. The information that you will need to set up an account is forthcoming. Please note that this service is between the parents and the catering company. Any questions or concerns must be addressed directly with Miami Prime Catering.
ONLY CREATE AN ACCOUNT IF YOU DID NOT HAVE ONE LAST YEAR. You will need the student's unique id number with an "OL" in front of it to create your child's lunch account. The student ID number will be emailed to each parent prior to the first day of school.
