Reader Reactions
I hope fully implementing the PowerSchool system is on his agenda for Day 1. MLWGS has been reluctant to offer on-line visibilty to student’s grades in the past. The program is now being “phased in”, but it’s too little, too late for many students who could have benefited greatly from open access. Henrico students & parents have enjoyed access to a similar system for years.
