How to Update Contacts:
The Contacts section collects the information for ALL student contacts -- parents/guardians and emergency contacts. Please be sure that all parents/guardians, step-parents and other in-home family contacts you need listed are included in the Contacts section along with the emergency contacts.
You will be able to prioritize these contacts in the order you would like them to be contacted in case of emergency in the “Priority” section.
For each Contact, the following Yes/No questions are asked:
- Emergency Contact: All parents/guardians and individuals you deem appropriate to be contacted if a child is ill or in an emergency.
- Has Custody: Married parents, adoptive parents, shared/joint custody agreement, single parents.
- Can Pick Up Student: Contacts, including parents/guardians/emergency contacts, who may pick up the student from school.
- Lives With Student: Contacts who live with the student, including shared parenting agreements in separate households.
- Resides at: Contacts who live at the student’s primary address.
- Receives Mail for Student: Parents/legal guardians who should receive correspondence/messages from the school/district.
We will no longer collect duplicate phone numbers. You will be asked for your preferred phone number as well as other phone numbers you may use. If you need to delete a phone number because it displays more than once, just delete the number and reset the Phone Number Type back to “Select” in the drop-down menu. This will eliminate required phone number fields.
IMPORTANT! To completely remove a person you no longer want to be a contact for your child, use the 'delete this contact' button. Do NOT just the information in the fields or attempt to reorder these contacts. If you want to change the order of the contacts, you will be able to adjust the priority you give to each contact on the next screen labeled PRIORITY to indicate the order contacts should be called in case of an emergency. If a custody arrangement has changed in the past year, you must provide a current court-stamped document to the school.
