Henry Hawk News Week of September 23, 2019

9/22/2019

0 Comments

 
Wow! We are starting our 4th week of school. Time seems to go very quickly once school begins.  These next few weeks are very important because they could help determine how the rest of the year goes for you and your child. Hopefully, you and your child are having a marvelous start to the school year.

A big thank you to all of our Henry families that attended our annual Curriculum Night last Wednesday.   If you were not able to attend, please be sure to reach out to your child's teacher.
Lastly, progress reports are right around the corner (October 4th). Be sure you are able to access the Aspen Parent Portal to see your child's current grades.


ASPEN
To register for an Aspen Parent Portal account:
  •  You will need to provide our school with an active email address to receive instructions and the validation code required to create an account.  (If you have given your email address this year on the emergency forms, we will make sure it is updated in Aspen.)
  • You should receive an email from Aspen with email instructions.  (If you have not, be sure to search "Aspen" in your email as it may have gone into your Spam folder.)  Follow the email instructions and use the validation code to create a Parent Portal account. We highly recommend completing registration on a desktop or laptop computer as this process is not optimized for mobile.
  • You will receive a second email to finalize account registration. Confirm your email credentials and log on to Aspen to link your students to your account. Aspen resources and training videos are available on the Parent Portal page on CPS.edu if you need help in setting up your account or navigating the system.
  • Call our school at 773-534-5060 during school hours if you do not receive the registration email, your account is locked, or you need assistance correcting profile information or linking student(s) to your account.
Log in to the Aspen Parent Portal at aspen.cps.edu with your email address and password.
Once you have set up your new Aspen Portal account, we encourage you to view our training videos to learn how to navigate the portal, set notifications, and customize your experience. Resources are available on the Parent Portal and Student Portal pages on CPS.edu.
Middle School IDs: Ms. Abraham will be taking photos of each middle school student (grades 6-8) this Thursday, September 26th from 8:30am to 10:30am. She will set up right outside each homeroom. Please let students know so they can look their best on Thursday! :)
