Did you know that you can view your student's grades 24 hours a day through Infinite Campus?  It gives you a "live" view into my gradebook, so that you can see their updated Math average anytime I post grades for a new assignment!

 

Even if you haven't signed up for the "Parent Portal" by bringing up your ID and getting a password, you can use your student's log-in information to access the same information!  All students were trained in the computer lab to sign in to this program and monitor their grades and attendance!

 

There is a link on the right-hand side of the district website (www.weatherfordisd.com) to the "Campus Portal."

User Name = the student's lunch number (ex: 123456)

Password = the first and last initials of a student's name, then their six-digit birthdate (ex: JD080397)

 

You can also log in to the Parent Portal to update your own contact information (address, phone number, email) quickly and easily.  That way we always have the most up-to-date information to get in touch with you if we need to

Welcome to Hall! I am so excited to have you in my math class this school year.
 
To help you get to know me better, I would like to share a few facts about myself.  I am a graduate of Weatherford High School and I graduated from Texas Tech University with a bachelors and masters in Accounting . I have been married for six years and I have a son who is 2 1/2 . I love to run, read, and play with my son. 
 
I hope you will find my class an exciting place to learn. It is my goal to make math fun and help you achieve your goals. If you have questions, please don't be afraid to ask. I am here to help you. I look forward to seeing you everyday at Hall.
 
Have a great school year!
 
Mrs. Burleson
