EPR Information for Parents (REPORT CARDS)
Parents/guardians can access the Elementary Progress Report (EPR) for semester 1 beginning Saturday, Dec. 19 at 9 a.m. via the EngagED Parent Portal. Parents will use their district SSO credentials which are the same for Infinite Campus and EngagED portals. Families, please verify you have a parent portal account set up prior to Dec. 19. Teachers put many hours into updating families on the progress of their children. Last year we only had about 50 percent of our families access their child's EPR (Report Card) online. IF you would like a paper copy, please email Lisa de la Pena@ lmdelapena@dcsdk12.org to request one be mailed to you.
