Weekly News & Updates

For the week of September 13, 2021

How do I view more than one of my

children on the Summit Learning Platform?

If you have more than one child on the Summit Learning Platform, you may be able to view each of them:

Log in to the Summit Learning Platform
Click your name in the lower left corner
Click View As student for each child

If you only see one child in your account, you’ll need to reach out to your student's teacher or principal with your email address so that they can set up your account for your child.

A MESSAGE FROM MS. SULLIVAN - F.A.C.E.

Hello Fairview Park Families!!!

I hope everyone is doing well settling into the routine of school again!

Last week, I touched on sleep, setting up a schedule and setting up communication with the school. This week I want to share some resources that I think will help with the start of the school year -

1) National PTA resources - has resources and information on COVID, podcasts, Parents' Guides to student success (listed by grade level- what your child will be learning this coming year and how you can help at home), Family Guides (how to help your child get set up to be successful in school - homework, studying, taking tests, etc), Special education information and College and Career readiness.

2) Common Sense Media - I LOVE this site!!! What movies are appropriate for my child to watch? Which books would be good for my child? How much time should I allow my child to play video games or be on screens? ALL of that information and more is on here. PLUS....Parents Ultimate Guide to Social Media stuff.

Please check this out! Great tool to reduce family arguments!!:)

I must end with a plug to please join our Fairview Park PTAs as well as get involved with their monthly meetings!! Great group of child and school advocates!! Fairview Park PTA

Have a great week!
