From the IT Dept:  Passwords Changing -

This summer, we will be making a change to STUDENT PASSWORDS in an attempt to meet the password complexity requirements that keep getting tighter for online programs.  On July 16th, students will have the first LETTER in their password capitalized.  So a password of apple52 would be Apple52, or 52apple would be 52Apple.  bears123 would become Bears123.  If you have students doing work online over the summer or need access to any of their SJPS accounts this WILL affect them on or immediately after July 16th.   

Report Card reward at Family Video-

• When you receive your final report card (paper or electronic) you will bring it in to Family Video.
• You will receive a voucher for a Free movie or game for each final grade of "A" in a core subject (Math, ELA, Science, & SS)
