Report Cards
There will be an official class on Tuesday, January 31 for distribution of third marking period report cards. These report cards will also include January Regents scores. Parents with questions or concerns should contact their child's guidance counselor.
All students should continue to follow their current program until June unless the student receives a program change. Some classes will change titles but will continue to meet at the same time and place.

Communicating with Parents
Parents of QV students can access many tools to track their child's performance in school. Progress reports are sent home halfway through each marking period. Parents can access their child's attendance, report cards, and transcripts at any time by signing up for a Daedalus* account. In addition, some teachers at QV are also utilizing Engrade, an online gradebook, to track student grades, post assignments, and facilitate online class discussions. Your child's teacher(s) will alert you if they use Engrade.
*To collect your Daedalus login info, contact your child's guidance counselor or email the school.
