FAQ's

Q. What happens in the event of inclement weather or an emergency?

At times, emergencies such as severe weather, fires, or power failures can disrupt School operations. The decision to close the schools will be made by the COO.

Please check our Emergency and Weather Information page for more details.

Q. How do I access my students grades?

Starting in the 2006 2007 school year, James Irwin Middle and High Schools are using Infinite Campus to track grades. Each student can login using their student ID. Parents/Households are given a separate login account as well.

To get login instructions please stop by the front office to verify your identity to obtain your activation key.

Once you have your Campus Portal Activation Key, you can create an account my clicking the Infinite Campus link at the top left of this page, and following the instruction at the top of the Infinite Campus Portal page.

Q. Why can't I view my student(s) grade(s)?

The grade book is active for the HS and the MS. It is not active for the 6th grade or the ES. The reason we have not made that available to date is that the 6th grade and ES have a very unique elementary model for their grades which currently does not fit into what IC does. They are still working through the issues on that.

Q. I am having trouble viewing the website. What's wrong?

Well, there are several reasons you might be having trouble. First, the site is optimized for machines running current Internet Explorer or Firefox and a screen with resolution 1024x768 or greater. Additionally, this site is using some elements of the Flash application. So, depending on what part of the site is giving you trouble will determine what the solution is. For now, please email tech@jamesirwin.org and let us know so we can fix it.
