Don't Forget the Registration Process!
Our teachers are so excited to meet their students tomorrow in their virtual classrooms. Students and parents can now access student schedules via Parent Portal. Please note that if you have not completed the annual registration process, you will not be able to view the schedule. Additionally, if there are any holds such as Chromebook/textbook fines, library fees, or missing paperwork, you will need to resolve them so that you are able to view the schedule. More information regarding annual registration may be found at https://www.pisd.edu/Page/17458.
Logging In, Accessing Classes and Materials
Once they have their schedule, they will need to log into the PISD web desk. Once they have logged into web desk, students will need to follow these instructions to log into their "virtual backpacks" and to join each of their teacher's Google classrooms using a "join code." They need to join each of their teacher's Google classrooms before 8:00 a.m. on Wednesday, August 12th. Once they join each of their Google classrooms, they will find information on how to access their "virtual classroom" for each of their courses.
Daily Bell Schedule -- Fully Remote through September 4
Students are expected to log in to their assigned class each period at the beginning of the period. Teachers will spend this time building class culture, reviewing class expectations and content overview for the semester, and providing info on processes, routines, useful technology, the 'Week at a Glance' document, Google Classroom, attendance and grading policies. Then as you can see in the schedule, students will have a virtual passing period of six minutes between classes.
Beginning August 17, we will continue to follow our same bell schedule, but students will alternate between synchronous (live in a virtual classroom) and asychronous (students working independently) portions of the day.

I. Student Registration and Schedules
Parents and guardians may now log into the PISD Parent Portal at https://parentview.pisd.edu to complete the required forms necessary to obtain your student's schedule. You will be notified by enews and School Messenger when schedules are available for release closer to the start of school. Students will be able to view and print their schedules online through Parent Portal at that time.
II. Clearing Holds
Once you have completed all forms in Parent Portal, you need to click on fees to pay for an ID. If there are any holds such as Chromebook/textbook fines, library fees, you may pay online with a credit card. These holds should be cleared in order to check out a Chromebook. (See dates below. More info to come.)
For missing paperwork, etc., you will need to contact the campus to resolve questions.
You can update residency by providing a current gas, water, electric bill or lease in the parent’s name to document an address change.
These can be faxed to 469.752.9423 or scanned and emailed to Debbie.Weiss@pisd.edu. Please include the student’s name and id#.
By setting up and updating your Parent Portal account you will gain access to your student's grades, attendance, assessment information, and eNews. If you need technology assistance, please contact the help desk at 469-752-8767 or at parent.portal@pisd.edu (email must include student name, student ID, and campus).
