Infinite Campus is a wonderful way to keep track of your student’s progress at school both behaviorally and academically. The document on the website http://harrisburgdistrict41-2.org/o/north-middle-school/browse/34882 outlines how to navigate through Infinite Campus and how to check items such as grades and behavior incidents. The handout also explains activity eligibility, academic accountability policy, and standards-based grading.

Our ICU program is up and running! ICU is a program we use to help communicate with parents about assignments that are missing or that need to be redone. Parents are able to log in to our database at https://www.icudatabase.net/harrisburgnorthms/ (which can also be found on our website). By using your student’s login and password, you will be able to see a list of any and all assignments on the ICU database. Check out the ICU Powerpoint http://harrisburgdistrict41-2.org/o/north-middle-school/browse/34882 that explains all the finer details of our ICU program.
