GET FAMILIAR WITH FAMILY ACCESS:

  • Family Access is a secure, web-based service that helps create a strong connection between home and school. With a login account to Family Access – which you should have received soon after registering your child – parents/guardians can view school-related information online (including progress reports) and update certain contact information.

    • All parents/guardians can view information about their child, including: 
      • Contact and emergency information
      •  Attendance records 
      • Teacher assignment/schedules
      • Grades - middle school reports and elementary school progress reports are posted online through Family Access; the District does not send home hard copies. Schools will notify parents/guardians of grade posting dates.
    • Parents/guardians of middle school students also can see grades online that give a regular, ongoing update of their child’s academic experience.  
    • Parents/guardians of more than one student in District 109 schools can see information about all children under one login. 
  • Click here for login link.

  • You can update email addresses and phone numbers through Family Access. (Address changes must be  made at the District office, with supporting documentation.) 

    Teachers, PTOs, schools, and the District use this contact information for important regular communication, so it’s important to keep your contact information current in Family Access.

      Logging In

        • Click on the Skyward Family Access logo on any school's website homepage, the dps109 website homepage, or HERE. 
        • Enter your login ID and password, click Sign In, and you’re in!

        New families will receive their login information via email when the online registration for their child is complete and approved by the District.

        Please keep your login information in a safe place, and don’t share it with anyone (unless co-parents/guardians are sharing one login).
