Our students, faculty, alumni, parents and friends are united by the rich history of Catholic education in the Greater Lowell area and the calling to prepare students for a bright, faith-filled future.
Welcome to Lowell. Area Schools. In our growing community and surrounding rural areas, Lowell Area Schools (LAS), located 18 miles east of Grand Rapids, offers educational opportunities where every student is guided and encouraged to reach his or her full potential. Learn more about Our District.
While times and technologies have changed, our core objective remains the same: to provide the highest quality educational experience we can envision. People are the heart and soul of the Lowell Joint School District. We are grateful for the support of each of you - students, staff members, parents, and the community at large.
Equity, Excellence, Empowerment. Lowell Farm to School is a collaboration that uses local food and education to celebrate our land, wellness, learning, collective impact and resilience as a culturally diverse community. A high quality education is a fundamental civil right of every child in our schools.
As representatives of the LPC, the Parent Council (PC) serves as a collective voice for parents and as an organizing vehicle for efforts to support the School. The Council aims to reflect the diverse views of parents and families at the school. Members meet monthly with the Head of School.
As announced during the State of the School meeting, the Lowell Parent Community is planning a great lineup of beloved activities this spring.
All K-12 school districts use some sort of database system for managing student information and maintaining their records. Infinite Campus is a district-wide student information system designed to manage attendance, grades, schedules, test scores, and other information about the students in the MMSD.
The Parent Portal is a confidential and secure Web site where you can get current information about your child's school attendance and grades.
Infinite Campus uses a 32-bit, secure socket layer (SSL) encryption technology to protect information. The technology is similar to that used in other industries such as health care and banking.
When you, as a parent or guardian, log-in you have access to information about all of the students for which you are associated. Class schedules, assignments and grades can be viewed. E-mail hyperlinks facilitate communication with classroom teachers. In addition, schools post important information on the home page, such as events, notices, etc.
The Student Portal is a confidential and secure Web site where students get current information about their attendance and grades. They also use the portal to review announcements and select courses for the next school year.
Only parents and guardians designated with legal rights to student records may receive a Parent Portal account. Each parent/guardian with such rights receives their own separate account. Accounts are NOT shared among more than one parent/guardian within households, i.e., there are no "household" accounts in the Portal.
Parents and guardians of middle school and high school students can access the Portal. Parents of elementary school students may access the portal in the winter months of the school year. Contact your child's school for more information about specific dates.
