Welcome to Ms. Ortez's Teacher Page

Allow me to tell you a little about myself. Besides being a teacher, I am a wife, mother, and grandmother. I have two wonderful children. Daniel who is a carpenter, married, and has blessed me with a beautiful granddaughter, Layla. My daughter Jasmine is 14, is an 8th grader at Bohannon, and is a member of a competitive dance team. We have a Siberian Husky, named Blaze and cat named Shadow.

District Tools I Use 

Attendance  
I take attendance using Aeries. You can stay on top of attendance through the Aeries Family Portal or Aeries App

Report Cards
I use Aeries to generate report cards. Families can view report cards through the Aeries Family Portal.

Gradebook
I use the Aeries Gradebook so students and their parent-guardians can view grades through the Aeries Family Portal or Aeries App. 

Sangha Interactive App
I will be relying on the Sangha app to communicate with families in a protected, password-protected environment.  Please download the app and log in using the parent-guardian email that was used for enrollment or data confirmation.
