Dear Parma High School Parents and Guardians,
Welcome to October! I cannot believe how fast this first nine weeks has gone by. It’s crazy to think that Parent-Teacher Conferences are only two weeks away.
I hope that you will plan to visit with your student’s high school teachers on Wednesday, October 24th or Thursday, October 25th. This is a great time to connect with teachers, learn about your student’s progress through this first nine weeks, and gather important class information for the second half of this first semester. After picking up your student’s report card at the high school office, you can walk down to the PHS Commons to visit with teachers as needed on a first come-first served basis.
Parent Teacher Conferences will be held Wednesday, October 24th and then again Thursday, October 25th. Times available to meet with teachers are from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and then again from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. During these two days, students will have early release at 1:10 p.m., with no school scheduled for Friday, October 26th.
As you all know, we have a new gradebook/student information system. Learning this system and communicating student’s grades through this system is a work in progress. This is one reason I would encourage you to come visit teachers during P.T. Conferences. This will ensure you have the most updated grade information directly from teachers. In addition, a parent portal permission slip should be filled out and on file with the district. When that is completed, you will be given access to your student’s academic progress through the Tyler SIS 360 parent portal. If you have not filled out that parent permission slip, we have included that document in our daily high school announcements and will have it available at Parent Teacher Conferences for you to complete. We are also making sure that students have logged on and have used the new Tyler SIS student 360 portal during class
Finally, during Parent Teacher Conferences you will be able to pick up your student’s first quarter progress report. If that progress report is not picked up during the two conference days, your student will be able to pick it up starting October 29, 2018.
Parma High School staff looks forward to visiting with you during Parent Teacher Conferences.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Monique Jensen

Dear Parma High School Parents and Students,
For this new school year, Parma School District has implemented a new student management system called Tyler SIS. In this change, teachers are re-creating gradebooks, and students and parents are receiving new login access to the Tyler 360 grade portal. With this new implementation, we are off to a slower start than usual in communicating grades to our students and parents. Our staff wants to make sure to communicate how this is being handled.
Tyler 360 Parent Portal
Last Thursday, August 30th parents were emailed Tyler 360 portal consent forms to set up parent access to the grade/records portal. Due to privacy laws, these permission slips must be turned into the school office in order for parent access to be set up. If you have not received a consent form then please have your child pick one up from the school office. Once the consent form is turned in, parents will receive an email with the login information.
Tyler 360 Student Portal
Student logins have limited information; therefore, logins will be handed out to students in the next week without parent consent form.
Teacher Gradebooks
Implementation of a consistent grading process across instructors and subjects is being finalized. For this reason, online gradebooks may appear empty and may change for parents and students with early access to the parent portal.
Finalizing implementation of our new system, grading, and parent portal is a high priority right now. At this time, if you have questions about student grades, please email their instructor. If you have questions about Tyler 360 Parent Portal access, please contact the school office.
Sincerely,
Monique Jensen
