Parents/Guardians/Staff/Students: Lewis Co C-1 Schools are in the process of switching over to a new Student Information System (SIS)—also known as a student management system. Previously we used Tyle r Technologies SISK12. Our new system is Teacherease. There will be an invite going out in the days ahead inviting you to sign up for the new portal, and then at a later date there will be a second email inviting portal users to get the corresponding app. Please note at this time the portal is not live. Once you are able to log-in it will take some time for teachers to start inputting information that you can view, so please be patient with the process. If you have any questions feel free to contact the high school office.
