FAMILY ACCESS, our student administrative software from Skyward, enables us to provide you, over the Internet, the following student information: Daily Progress, Attendance, Schedule, Quarterly/Semester Grades, your student’s basic Demographic Information, and the ability to update your contact information.

Enter your Family login ID and Password. Click on the “Enter” button.  If you lose your ID and/or Password, please call the main office of the school your child attends.

This will take you to the main Skyward Family Access screen. Near the top in the middle will be your child’s name.
