Homework Link Update-- We have addressed the issue of the link not showing up on the app. It should be there now under Student Links and Parent Links. However, it will work much better on a computer through the website.

Sullivan Middle School Parents and Guardians-- Did you know there is a place to go to see if your student has homework? Just go to our homepage or use the app, select Sullivan Middle School, and under the menu for both Parent and Student resources, there is a link to our homework spreadsheet.
