Dear Parents/Guardians,

Technology is a huge part of all of our lives.  It has become commonplace to shop, pay bills, choose movies, buy tickets and communicate with friends and relatives online.  We are working hard to include instructional technology in a meaningful way in the daily lives of our students.  Parents have played a big role in helping us to put tools in the hands of our students and teachers so that each of our students has the opportunity to experience a digital classroom environment as part of the learning process.  In Spring of 2015, if all goes as planned, the State of California will begin testing students online instead of with paper and pencil exams.

As the world goes digital, we at SRVUSD are also trying to improve our processes and convenience for our parents.  The District is very excited to announce that our Student Information System’s parent portal is now open! Parents are now able to view important information about their children as well as make updates/changes to their own household/emergency contact information. Information is for the current year only, and changes can only be made for students who are currently in our system. In the portal, parents can view grades, immunizations, assessments and transcripts. You can also make changes to your household information and emergency contacts – all online!

If you have not already done so, please create your portal account and update any demographic information that may need to be changed. For middle and high school students, final report cards will be available electronically, but only to those who have created their parent portal account. For instructions on how to create your parent portal account, please go to the District website at:

www.srvusd.net/parent_portal.

We will also be conducting online district registration for 2013-14, but please note that this district registration is only step 1 in the process.  Each school site will still conduct its own registration process, and parents will need to check with their school(s) for information on that process and important dates.

We hope that these changes make your access to us a bit more convenient. Thank you for your patience with us as we make the transition.

Sincerely,

Mary C. Shelton
