Clark High School PTSA

Skyward Access is now open as of 9am for families with returning students. Families can sign up for a new Family Access account and start their annual registration. Please make sure to scroll down to my "PLEASE NOTE...MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, IN CASE IT HELPS YOU" description below...

"Plano ISD is implementing Skyward Family Access for parents and students for the 2024–2025 school year. Skyward Family Access will replace the current Parent Portal, Gradebook and include a mobile app.

Family Access portal is an easy-to-use web resource, available on any device with an internet connection. It allows parents and guardians to access information about their students, such as attendance, grades, assignments, schedules, progress reports and report cards.

2024-2025 NEW STUDENTS Registration
Online enrollment for new students is NOW OPEN. For more information about creating a Skyward Family Access account visit Family Access Help: https://www.pisd.edu/FamilyAccessHelp

2024-2025 RETURNING STUDENTS Annual Registration
July 22, 2024, at 9 AM for families with returning students. Families can sign up for a new Family Access account and start their annual registration. Students with finalized schedules can view them in Family Access starting August 5.

Look for more information in the coming weeks about this new resource for Plano ISD students and families.

PISD invites you to "visit our website" to learn more and stay informed."

PLEASE NOTE...MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, IN CASE IT HELPS YOU: WHEN I PERSONALLY (AS A PARENT WITH A RETURNING PISD STUDENT), tried to LOGIN with my email address I always used for Parent Portal, that email address did not work and I kept getting this message: "There was an issue with your registration. Please wait an hour and attempt your submission again. If you continue to experience an issue, contact our helpdesk below." message. Then I tried my other email address I use for other PISD tasks, and that email address worked and gave me this message: "Thank you for submitting your Family Access Registration. You should receive an email shortly detailing the next steps in your account setup." I then went to my email inbox and found the "Welcome to Plano ISD!" email from: [email protected] email address that said: "Welcome to Plano ISD! Your registration for Family Access is nearly complete. Your username is your email address # # . Please go to Claim My Account (which is a URL Link) to finish your registration. Your claim code is # # # # # . You will be prompted to set up a password. Then I clicked on the Claim My Account URL link and was directed to the webpage where I created and re-typed my password. Then that page directed me to go back to LOGIN where i then logged in with my email address and newly created password. Which then successfully allowed me into my now Skyward Account "Launchpad" area!

Happy Skyward Account Access Wildcats! Happy Summer Wildcats!
