MBS DIRECT

 

Antonian uses MBS Direct to provide information and purchasing options for textbooks used for Antonian courses. Students are responsible for the purchase of their own textbooks. If a textbook is noted as "required," it is imperative that the student acquire the book and bring it as directed by the teacher.

PARENT/STUDENT GRADE PORTAL AND GRADING SYSTEM

Antonian College Preparatory High School is on a four-quarter grading system. Students receive progress reports at the end of each quarter. All grade reports can be found in the Ascender Parent/Student Grade Portal.

For purposes of extracurricular participation status, student progress is monitored at each quarter-end. Students who are failing more than one course at each quarter-end are placed on the ineligibility list. A student may earn removal from the ineligibility list at the mid-quarter point (approximately 4 1/2 weeks) of the subsequent quarter or the end of the subsequent quarter.

These students may practice, but they may not participate in any competitive event or performance. These students may not wear uniforms or attend a game or event in any capacity other than as a spectator.
