What
is ParentCONNECTxp?
- ParentCONNECTxp
is a convienient home-to-school collaboration toll that allows
parent/guardians to keep track of their children’s school information
and get more involved with their child’s day to day education. Parent/Guardians
may visit the password-protected website to view announcements
as well as student schedules, grades, assignments, and attendance. Parent/Guardians
may also subscribe to receive automatic email notifications
of unexcused absences, missing assignments, or failing grades. They
can view their child’s information through the website after
they have registered and received a User ID and password. To
maintain the integrity of student data, the ParentCONNECTxp
application is a “read-only” system and the data resides on
a special server. The actual student data resides on
servers safely behind a firewall. The data is also encrypted
as it is transferred over the web.

What
happens after I register?
- ParentCONNECTxp
registrations will be processed once a week, on Thursdays. User
IDs and passwords will then be forwarded to the school of the
youngest child. Please allow 7- 10 business days for
the schools to pick-up these forms and have them ready for
distribution. Check with the school before picking up
your information to ensure that they have received it.
- When
requesting a User ID and password , the parent/guardian must
go to the school and provide proper identification to the school
contact. The school will verify the parent/guardian relationships
and the right to access the student’s record. This is
the same protocol currently used for requesting student records.
