Through this activity, students learned that dressing professionally shows potential employers they are serious, prepared, and ready for the job. They also gained valuable experience in budgeting—making thoughtful spending decisions and understanding the importance of setting and sticking to a financial plan.
How can I view my student’s ATLAS results?
Families can view ATLAS score reports through the Parent Portal. Once logged in, you’ll be able to see your student’s assessment results and check their progress throughout the year and from year to year. A short video tutorial is available to help you log in, along with a quick guide that explains how to read your student’s scores. Both can be found in the Learning and Assessment Center section of our website. If you need your Parent Portal access code, have trouble logging in, or have questions about reports, your student’s school counselor will be happy to help.
