    Frequently Asked Questions


    This section provides answers to users' common problems. If you have a question, check here first. Chances are someone else has already asked it!

    Why should I sign up for a Parent Portal account?
    It is critical as a parent to have a Community Web Portal account.  It is a one stop location to get DASD information about your child and in the near future will be the only location to change information, sign summer forms, and get report cards (other than to go directly to the buildings).

    What if I forget my password?
    Click the Forgot your password? link on the Community Web Portal login page and type in your user name and the answer to your security question. Your new password will be emailed to your email address.

    How often is information on the Parent Portal updated?
    Information is updated in accordance with district policies.

    What student information will I have access to via the Parent Portal?
    The Community Web Portal allows parents to view any information deemed acceptable according to the school district's policies. Typical information available (but not limited to) through Sapphire Community Web Portal includes student schedule, report cards, progress reports, discipline, attendance, verification forms, on-demand forms, and building announcements.

    If my student changes schools within the district will I have to apply for a new account?
    No. Your account does not change with change of school. In fact, the parent would not have to change anything in their parent account from the time their student is in first grade until they graduate from high school.

    My spouse and I would like to have different accounts and different email addresses from which we will view our children's records. Is this possible?
    There is no restriction on the number of accounts (each based on a separate email address) that a family can have. Each account can have access to any number of children.
