Stratfield Elementary School PTA

FROM THE DESK OF MS. McGOEY

Please see the attached letter (click here) that were sent home this February and March regarding your activation code for Infinite Campus. You will need to activate this system in order to see your child’s class placement for the next school year. Letters for class placement will no longer be sent home in the mail. I will also be using this system to blast out important messages next year. If you have any questions or problems regarding this process, please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Thank you for your help in this matter.
Ms. McGoey
