Friday Focus: Infinite Campus
Infinite Campus, the student information system used by District 214, is an extremely invaluable tool for parents. Through Infinite Campus, parents can view their student’s schedule, attendance, grades, and any missing assignments. Parents can see when upcoming assignments are due and receive notifications from teachers; pay outstanding fees and print fee statements; review their student’s academic plan, report cards, unofficial transcripts, health records, bus stops, locker number/combinations; update contact information, preferences, and more. It is the District expectation that ALL parents/guardians have access to Infinite Campus. If you do not have access or can no longer log in to your account, please contact the District 214 Parent Help Line at (847) 718-6565.
You can always find the link to the Infinite Campus Parent Portal under “Quick Links” on the BGHS homepage or bookmark https://ic.d214.org. Parents can also download the Infinite Campus app for Android or iPhone.
Now is a good time to make sure you have access to the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. It is early enough in the semester to help your student get on top of their grades and identify any areas of concern.
