Dear Parent/Guardian of ____________,

In an effort to enhance communication with parents/guardians, we have updated our PowerSchool Parent Portal to a single sign-on program. This will allow parents/guardians with more than one child to access all of their children at one time with one login and password. You will still be able to securely view your child's (grades 6-12 only) up-tothe minute student attendance, grades, detailed assignment descriptions, school bulletins, and even personal messages from the teacher.

Please go to powerschool.whufsd.com/public to access the PowerSchool Parent Portal.

Students:

Please use your assigned login and password to access your account. Unfortunately, this program will not allow you to change your login or password.

Student Username:
Student Password:

Parents:

Click on "Create an Account" the first time you login for the 2012-2013 school year (DO NOT just type in the access ID and Access Password on the main screen as it will not work). The portal will ask you to put in your name, email, and password (you will be able to make up your own user name and password for ease of use as well). Next, complete the "Link Students to your account" section. Add your child(ren)'s access ID and Access Password data from below. There is a limit of 7 children per login.

Access ID:
Access Password:

Finally, continue adding other children from your family from grades 6-12 if needed. When completed, press the "Enter" buttom on the bottom left hand corner of your current page.

Notes: Your Username and Password is unique to your child. Please keep these logins confidential so that only you and your child(ren) can access their information. This portal is a great way to discuss school and the classes that your child is taking this year.

Grades are posted to the Parent Portal by the teachers. The teacher's grade book is a "snapshot" and does not always accurately reflect the student's overall progress or performance. Grades can have different values in weighting and will vary by particular courses. Please remember that all assignments will be put up as soon as possible by all
teachers, but some projects will take longer to assess and post depending on their size. If you have questions regarding an assignment, you can always email the teacher.

Please go to the icon called Email Notifications and set up any reports you would like to receive from the parent portal. You do not have to use this, but it's a great way to have information sent to you on a weekly, biweekly or monthly basis.

Please email Dan Rehman (drehman@whufsd.com) at the WHHS and Marcia Murray (mmurray@whufsd.com) at the MS if you have any questions or concerns regarding the PowerSchool Parent Portal.

Thank you for your participation in the Parent Portal.

Have a fantastic day.

WHHS and WHMS
