This page is just for you — and your student. We’ve designed it to be your go-to spot for all the important information you may need throughout the school year.
We’ve kept things simple, organized, and easy to navigate so you can get what you need without the extra hassle. Think of this page as your Tiger Family hub — here whenever you need a hand, a reminder, or a resource.
Let's work together for successful student attendance!

What is ClassDojo?
ClassDojo is a free app that connects teachers with parents.
It is secure and teachers can set who to share with; either one parent, their class, or the school.
With ClassDojo you can:
See what positive behavior your Tiger has shown that day/week
Learn what is happening in your Tiger's classroom
Send and receive messages directly from the teachers!
View photos and videos of classroom activities and moments
Receive important updates and information from administration!
Let’s make communication fierce and flawless — our goal is to connect with 100% of our Tiger families this year!
We've added a quick "how-to" video below so you can help us reach that goal
How to connect with Class Dojo (after you receive the code from your teacher) -- check this out!
