What you can do in the app

See the full record day by day β present, late, absent or excused β and the time they arrived.

Payments
Send proof of payment straight from your phone instead of queuing at the office.

Quarter grades and academic standing as soon as they are released.
Announcements & events
School news, holidays and events β no more relying on a note in a bag.

Tap βSign in with email codeβ
- 2
Type the e-mail address the school has on file
This must be the same address you gave the school for your child. If you are not sure which one, see below. - 3
Check your e-mail for a 6-digit code
It arrives within a minute or two. Check your spam or junk folder if you do not see it. - 4
Type the code and you are in
If your school e-mail is a Google account, you can tap Continue with Google instead and skip the code.
If you cannot sign in
Almost always this means the school has no e-mail address on file for you β so there is nowhere to send your code. Send us your details below and the office will add them.
First, a few quick checks
- Look in your spam or junk folder for the code.
- Make sure you typed the same e-mail you gave the school β not a newer one.
- Yahoo and iCloud addresses sometimes delay the code by a few minutes.
- Still nothing after 10 minutes? Use the form below.
Ask the school to add your e-mail
Fill this in and the office will link your e-mail to your child's record. You only need to do this once.
