6. http://www.kleinisd.net/default.aspx?name=sis.parent If your son/daughter has a “blank” space in the grade book, DO NOT be alarmed. This just means that he/she may have been absent, the teacher has not yet graded his/her work, or he/she has additional time to complete. If an assignment is late it will appear as “missing” and a default grade of zero will automatically be averaged into the overall grade. This is the BEST way to keep up with your students progress.
