Forgot Login or Password

During the registration and enrollment process, parents most often provide an email address along with their contact information. This email address automatically synchronizes with the data in Schoology (PowerSchool) so that each parent has a parent account that is associated with their child.

When the account is first created, the parent will get a welcome email from Schoology (PowerSchool).  If you've lost this email, or it's been several years since your childe was a new FSD145 student, you can use the forgot password link to retrieve your Schoology login infomration.

1. Use the Forgot Password link to the right of the Log in button (https://app.schoology.com/login/forgot).  Enter your email address click "Send My Login Info."
2. Check your email for a message from Schoology (PowerSchool).  Follow the instructions to reset your password.

Automated Progress Reports

Schoology (PowerSchool) automatically sends a student progress report to each parent on Saturday morning.  If you need to get these reports more frequently, or if you've unsubscribed from those emails, you can adjust your settings to customize how frequently you get updates on your child's progress.

Schoology has a very good article that describes how you can customize your email preferences.
