Data Confirmation
The 22/23 Parent Data Confirmation Portal is NOW OPEN! Please complete this process as soon as possible.
For directions on how to access the portal, please go to https://mwusd.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Data-Confirmation-Steps-for-Parents-22-23.pdf or go to the District website at www.mwusd.org and click the "Data Confirmation" button on the homepage of the website.
A few quick reminders regarding the Parent Data Confirmation process:
- Parents are required to complete the process every year, for each child in the district, even if there are no changes. You are confirming that the information we have is the most current.
- During the Data Confirmation process, please make sure that the primary phone number listed is a cellular number. This year we are adding text messaging capability to our School Messenger electronic notification system in order to provide another method of communication in the event of an emergency. In order for parents to be provided the opportunity to "opt in" to the text messaging option, the primary phone number linked to each student MUST be a cellular number.
- Please complete the "Income Survey" included in the Data Confirmation process. This information provided helps to support the district in providing valuable programs throughout the district.
- Once completed, please print and sign 2 copies of the Data Confirmation for each child. One copy remains in the school office, the other in your child's classroom. For your convenience, both copies can be left in the secure, black drop box located at your school site in front of the office at anytime.
For questions regarding Data Confirmation, please contact Alicia Mills at 707.524.2972 or by emailing amills@mwusd.org .
