Skyward--Important
Family Reminders About Skyward Tasks
Welcome to the 2021-2022 school year! We are excited to start this new year of learning with you. As partners in your child’s education, we want to be sure we have the most current information on your child and family. Please log into Family Access using the directions below and verify your child's information before the first day of school.
If you do not remember your login information for an existing Family Access account, click "Forgot Login/Password?" on the Skyward Family Access login screen.
If you do not have a Family Access account, please fill out the online form to receive your login credentials.
How Do I Verify and Update My Child's Information?
Log into your Skyward Family Access account.
After you have logged in, click the "Student Information Verification" link on the left side of the screen.
Select the child whose information you would like to update.
Review the information on the screen and make changes if necessary.
Click the "Complete Step" link at the bottom of the screen to move onto the next screen.
After you complete a step, a green check mark will appear next to that step on the right side of the screen.
Follow this process for all steps listed on the right side of the screen.
For the final step, click the "Submit Student Verification Information" link.
You must complete this process for EACH child in your family.

First Day of School
Arrival Information--Parent Drop-Off
When you pull up into the drop-off lane, please pull ahead as far as you can before letting your child exit your car. If there is a long line, please don't wait until you are directly in front of the door before letting your child out of your car. There is enough space for at least eight cars to drop off at the same time, and the children can walk up the sidewalk to the front door.
End-of-the-Day--Parent Pick Up
As in the past, we will provide you a pick-up tag for your child. Please write your child's name and grade clearly on this tag, and place it so that it is visible through your windshield. This way you will drive up, we can read your child's name and make sure that your child gets to your car. Please remain in your car and in line. This is similar to a drive through, were you place your order and receive your happy face. Please be patient, alert and courteous. Everyone has a schedule with places to go.
