Families can determine which phone numbers and which e-mail accounts receive certain types of communications. Guardian(s) will be able to make changes to the Skylert information in Skyward Family Access. Log in to Skyward Family Access through www.bb-sd.com | Click on the Skyward Family Access Logo. Once logged in, click on Skylert on the General Information menu on the left navigation bar. Your Skylert settings will display. If you desire to make changes, simply click in the fields that you would like changed or place check marks in the appropriate headings for notifications. Please note that the Primary Phone, Work, Cellular, and Home E-mail shown under My Skyward Contact Info are initially the same pieces of information recorded in our Skyward Student database. Once you make changes on the Skylert screen, the changes are recorded in Skylert (for mass contacts). You can make similar changes under the Student Information Tab. You may also add 1 additional Phone, Cell, and Email Address to the Additional Contact Info For Family Section. • Save - if you make changes, be sure to click Save before exiting this screen. • Undo Changes - If you make changes, clicking Undo Changes will revert back to the prior settings provided you have not already clicked Save. Back - will send you back to the previous screen. • Food Service - Negative Balance calls and e-mails are distributed on a daily basis. Low Balance calls and e-mails are distributed once a week. • Emergency School Hours/Non-School Hours – notifications will reference events such as school closings, safety related incidents, and other emergency notifications determined by district administrators. • General - notifications are for informational purposes only and will reference various district and individual school events. • Attendance - notifications will only be generated if your student has an unexcused absence for the instructional day. If your student is marked absent, a system generated attendance phone call will be sent between the hours of 9:55 AM – 9:00 PM (Elementary Buildings) and 11:00 AM – 9:00 PM (Middle/High School). Tardy calls for the Middle/High School will be sent between the hours of 4:00 PM – 9:00 PM. If you currently do not have Skyward Family Access, please contact your student’s school secretary for access. You may also fill out the form online, print it out, and send it to school with your student at: http://www.bb-sd.com/documents/Skyward_Access.pdf Brentwood-Baldwin-Whitehall | Spring 2016 | icmags.com 95 C I THOOL Y OF MC KE E SP N E WS SC DI STRI C TOR N ETWS Editing Skylert Information in Family Access McKeespor BrentwoodtBorough Family Technology Update
