Agenda & Power School Abbreviations

Your child should be able to explain everything written in his/her agenda! We have to resort to abbreviations due to limited space. Here's an explanation of some of our shorthand.

ABC = alphabetical order
AM = Accelerated Math
AMC = AM Corrections (whether it's a test, practice, or exercise)
AME = AM Exercise
AMP = AM Practice
AR = Accelerated Reader
EC = extra credit
LA = language arts
sci = science
sen or sent = sentences
SS = social studies
voc = vocabulary
WB = workbook
WOW = word of the week
WS = worksheet
x ea = times each (3x ea = three times each)

*You will see these same abbreviations in Power School, where you can view your child's grades online.
