Parent portal
An account linked only to the parent's own children, showing attendance, grades and certificates, and the child's level of need for support with its reasons when there is an alert.
ClassWhy Connect · Communication and parent portal
Parents see attendance and grades as they are recorded
Each parent has a separate account that shows their children's attendance, grades and certificates, and from which they can message their teachers. Notifications and announcements arrive on the channels the institution enables and each user selects.
