Only parents/guardians listed as having custody or legal guardianship can access a child’s information. To setup your login, you will need to obtain your child(ren)’s unique access ID and access password (This information is typically mailed to all parents once a child is enrolled. If you need another copy, we can give you one at your child’s school with a photo ID).

Grades (overall and individual assignments), attendance, class schedule, and general information. You can also update your parent contact information and sign-up for automated emails. The parent portal only includes information for students in grades 7-12.

Yes. Each student receives a unique student login that provides more limited portal access to make it easier for the student to review her/his own grades. However, we also emphasize to students that individual assignment grades are just one part of their performance among many other factors that are also important.

The parent portal uses SSL encryption to encode all of its information. Only parents/guardians listed as having custody or legal guardianship can access a child’s information. The site is accessed using a username and password created by and unique to each parent. Additionally, each parent is an important partner in keeping their child’s information secure by:

1. Picking a password that is not obvious for someone else to guess. The most secure passwords combine letters and numbers and are at least seven characters long.
2. Not giving out your password. School staff will never ask you for your password either in email, phone, by mail, or in person; the password is solely for your use and knowledge. Students receive their own username and password that provides more limited access and should not be given a parent’s password.
3. If there are any concerns that someone knows your password, complete the following three steps:
   1. log into the parent portal and click on “Account Preferences” and change your password;
   2. click on the link for “access logs” in the parent portal to see the exact dates/times that your password was used; and
   3. notify the school office so that we can help.

You should contact the school office at your child’s school.
