Classical Principles

Week 1 of 39 ยท Septemberโ€” this week

Multum Non Multa

Much, not many

Classical education teaches fewer things more deeply rather than skimming over many topics superficially. A student who truly understands ten great works is better formed than one who has encountered a hundred superficially. Dig wells, not ditches.

Parent Quick Start

Homework, class events, the calendar, and your volunteer hours for all of your children in one convenient place.

Finding your child's homework

1

Open the site

Visit the link your teacher or the school office shared with you.

2

Tap Classboard, then your child's grade

You'll see nightly practice, upcoming assignments, and any tests for that grade. The site remembers the last grade you viewed, so it's one less tap next time.

3

Tap any day or assignment for details

Due dates, subject, attachments, and any notes from the teacher open in a popup.

Asking a question

Open any assignment and use Ask a Question at the bottom of the popup. A teacher will reply there, tagged Staff so it's clear who answered.

โš ๏ธ Questions are visible to anyone viewing that grade's board โ€” not just you. Please don't include your child's name, address, phone number, or other personal details.

Tracking your volunteer hours

The school gave your family a private family number โ€” no name, no login, just a number. Tap Volunteer Hours in the menu, enter it, and you'll see your total for the year and every event you've earned hours at.

To actually earn hours: look for a QR code posted at the volunteer event itself. Scanning it and entering your family number logs that event's hours automatically โ€” you never type in a number of hours yourself.

Add it to your home screen

Get a real app icon on your phone in under a minute โ€” no app store needed.

๐Ÿ“ฑ iPhone / iPad

  1. Open the site in Safari

A few extra touches

โ˜พ

Dark mode

Tap the sun/moon icon near the top of the page to switch โ€” easier on the eyes for a nightly check-in.

School Calendar

Field trips, no-school days, and school-wide events โ€” filter by Upper or Lower Campus if you'd like fewer results.
