Student Progress Center Replaces Home Access Center

Student Progress Center Replaces Home Access Center

The East Baton Rouge Parish School System has switched student information systems from Eschool to JCampus, and with this change comes a change in how parents and students will track student progress. JCampus Student Progress Center (SPC) is a system that allows parents to view their student’s school information. It is the system that will replace Home Access Center, which was used in the past. It will no longer be necessary to contact the school in order to access this information.

Student Progress Center (SPC) updates student data activity as it happens, enabling students and parents to track progress and prepare for success.
You can use SPC to catch up on your child’s homework, check discipline, get teacher comments, see school announcements, owed fees, and so much more.
If you are a parent or guardian, see all of your children from one screen, one login – anytime, anywhere. Other features of SPC include:

· View your personal graduation plan
· Multiple Language Options
· Mobile Access
· View Attendance
· & More!

To access Student Progress Center (SPC) use the following link:

When registering on SPC, parents will need their personal information, along with a PSN number. The PSN number must be signed for at Woodlawn High. While signing for the PSN, all of your student’s emergency contact information will be verified. Once your signature is on file, parents will be able to contact the school via phone or email in order to retrieve a lost PSN number.

Once registered, a parent can link multiple students by using the drop down box on the upper right side of the screen.

A link to SPC can be found on the main menu, under the Parents tab.

ICare Team Spirit Sponsors Mock Crash

ICare Team Spirit Sponsors Mock Crash

This April, Woodlawn High’s Team Spirit Club, along with ICare, sponsored a Mock Crash on campus. This crash is the second part of a three part series, The Sudden Impact Program, that students at Woodlawn participate in. As tenth graders, students take a Sudden Impact class, followed by the Mock Crash for juniors, and a Mock Trial for seniors.

Four students, Ma’Kayla Odom, Alexis Martin, Hannah Luker, and Selena Seitz, played the parts of students involved in a head on collision. Their parents, along with personnel from Our Lady of the Lake Medical Emergency Center, Louisiana State Police, St. George Fire Department, and the East Baton Rouge Parish Coroner’s Office, took their respective roles as the scene unfolded for the Mock Crash.

The scene was a reenactment of the immediate aftermath of a crash in which drivers and passengers are injured. The audience of juniors watched quietly, allowing them to see first-hand how drinking and driving impacts everyone involved.

Each year teens from across our state lose their lives to impaired driving. Motor Vehicle Crashes remain the leading cause of death for teenagers aged 16  to 19 years of age, according to the Centers for Disease Control. This age group is three times more likely than drivers ages 20 and older to be involved in a fatal crash.

The Mock Crash underscored the consequences of drinking and driving, the impact of seat belt usage, and the emotional suffering families endure when a fatal crash occurs in reality. The ultimate goal is that seeing friends participate in the crash helps students realize that it can happen to anyone at any point in time, and the importance of really needing to be responsible for their actions. The Sudden Impact Program is an effective way to educate students on the dangers of distracted driving.
