Google Classroom
The Secondary Community (Upper School) uses Google Classroom to house course syllabi, assignment due dates, course communications, and student work.
Parents may stay informed through Google Classroom’s guardian summary emails. After accepting a guardian invitation, parents may receive periodic email updates covering missing work, upcoming assignments, and recent class activity such as announcements and assignments. These summaries may be sent daily or weekly, based on your preference. Full access to Classroom itself, including viewing assignments and coursework directly, requires signing in with your student through their NewGate account.
