Student Portal Passes

Students who have access to their own devices throughout the school day, can create passes through a Student Portal.
* The student portal must first be configured in the Settings by an administrator. 

 

Steps For Student-Created Passes

  • For the initial login, students will use their Pikmykid ID number as the username and password. Students can also sign into the Student Portal using the # symbol and their external school ID (i.e. #123456) as both the username and password.
  • Students will then be prompted by the system to create a new, secure password. This password should be 8 characters in length and something that the students will remember. The students will continue to use the ID number they signed in with as their username.
