| Parent Portal | http://cci.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/102 | Parent Portal | <p></p><span><p style="font:13px/1.6 arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 10px;color:#595959;text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;word-spacing:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;">The
SCDSB Parent Portal is a secure online tool that provides
parents/guardians (of students less than 18 years of age) with quick
access to their children's attendance and, in secondary school, grades.
Parents and guardians can set up daily, weekly or monthly email alerts
for attendance information.</p><p style="font:13px/1.6 arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 10px;color:#595959;text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;word-spacing:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;">To
access the Parent Portal, parents/guardians will need their child's
Student Number, which can be found on the Student Information
Verification Form sent home at the start of every school year, as well
as an Access ID.</p><p style="font:13px/1.6 arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 10px;color:#595959;text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;word-spacing:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;">The
Access ID will be/has been provided in a sealed letter. If you lose the
Access ID, you can visit us in the school office and we'll provide it
to you after verifying your identity.</p><p style="font:13px/1.6 arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 10px;color:#595959;text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;word-spacing:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;">Each
student has a unique Access ID and Student Number. Once a
Parent/Guardian has created a Parent Portal account, all students can be
linked to that single account.</p><p style="font:13px/1.6 arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 10px;color:#595959;text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;word-spacing:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:#ffffff;">Go to <a target="_blank" href="http://ps.scdsb.on.ca/" style="color:#0072b9;text-decoration:none;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">http://ps.scdsb.on.ca</span></a> to create a Parent Portal account or login.</p></span> | | | |

| Updated criminal record checks required for volunteers | http://cci.scdsb.on.ca/about-us/news/school-news/196 | Updated criminal record checks required for volunteers | <p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;">We appreciate the commitment of all who volunteer at our school. In an effort to ensure the safety and well-being of our students, and in accordance with the Education Act, the SCDSB requires a complete and up-to-date Criminal Record Check Vulnerable Sector Screening (CRC-VSS) for all volunteers across the system. If you are a current, approved volunteer and your CRC-VSS is more than five years old, you will be receiving a notification this month indicating that you are required to submit a new CRC-VSS. If you wish to continue as a SCDSB volunteer, please complete the following steps:</p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;"></p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;">1. Contact the school principal to obtain a CRC-VSS request letter.</p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;">2. Bring your CRC-VSS request letter to your local police detachment.</p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;">3. Submit your original and complete CRC-VSS to the school office for review by Oct. 31, 2018.</p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;"></p><p style="color:#000000;font-family:"times new roman";font-size:medium;">If you are a current SCDSB employee volunteering in the system, you are required to submit an updated CRC-VSS to the school where you will be volunteering. If you have completed a CRC-VSS within the past six months of the start of the school year for another organization, you may submit that original CRC-VSS for review. If you have questions, please contact the school</p> | | | |
