Parent Access to SECURLY - The D41 Student Online Safety System

The safety of students is our number one priority and that includes internet safety. Many District 41 students will be in the possession of district technology over summer break. As a way to help families monitor devices and keep children safe online, the district provides parents access to the student safety management system called Securly.


Securly is installed on all district issued devices. This is the same monitoring system we use during the school year. Over summer break, Securly will continue to monitor the devices and notify parents of content that could be of concern.


- District 41 adds all parent emails that we have on file in the Skyward database into
Securly.
- Parents will receive a welcome email from Securly.
- District 41 updates any parent email changes or additions from Skyward each week
on Thursday afternoons.
- Parents will receive weekly email reports on Monday's from Securly. The reports will
contain only information about at-home activities.

Please CLICK HERE to visit the FAQ page about the Securly Parent Portal.

Please continue to talk with your children about internet safety and monitor their technology usage at home. Thank you for partnering with us to keep students safe and responsible while online this summer.

NOTE: If you need help with your Securly account or want to learn more about Securly please look at this article. Remember, parents and students seeking technology support can enter a ticket at our D41 Support Center here (directions). Also note, our safeguards will remain in place, but with students and staff not in the buildings over the summer we will not be actively monitoring all alerts from Securly.
