Guardian Summaries

Gives guardians that have signed up a summary of their student’s activity - they do not have access to Google Classroom: What a guardian sees

​

If you have students turning in assignments, be sure guardians are aware that the grades are not correct - or you can also consider not assigning grades to current and future assignments while at home.

​

Can be turned off.
