Tracking Unsubmitted Assignments

This section aims to provide parents with support in navigating the two main learning platforms being used in Ferndale Schools (grades 6-12) during this virtual school year: Google Classroom and Canvas.

Remind

Remind is a communication tool that enables Ferndale Schools administrators and teachers to connect with each other and with students and families in an automated and real-time manner. Remind uses email, text, and telephone calls to help us communicate with individuals or groups quickly and safely.

Updating Contact Info in MiSTAR for Remind

Please update your phone number and email address in Parent Portal. Parent Portal syncs with Remind, and this will ensure the school district has your most up-to-date contact information on record. If you just update in Remind, the district will not have your updated information.

FERPA

Immunizations are an important part of keeping our children healthy. Schools and State and Local health departments must monitor immunization levels to ensure that all communities are protected from potentially life-threatening diseases and, if necessary, respond promptly to an emerging public health threat.

Support Resources
