The Verify Parent Accounts screen allows users to easily review parent account setup requests. Once the parent information has been reviewed according to district processes, the user can either accept or reject the parent’s account request. Accepting the request will enable the parent’s account, allowing them to access their student's information via the Focus Parent Portal.
1. In the Users menu, click Verify Parent Accounts.
2. Select the Search All Schools check box to search for unverified parent account registered at all the schools to which you have access.
3. Select the Show Verified Parents check box to review parent accounts that have already been verified.
4. Select the Show All Parents check box to view all parent accounts, those that have been verified and those that have not been verified.
Unverified parent accounts reflect parents who have gone to the Focus Parent Portal and have requested a user account in order to be able to view their student's information. Review the information for verification in accordance with district processes.
5. To verify an account, select the check box next to the account. This check box is only active for accounts that have not been verified.
Select the check box in the column header to select all accounts at once.
6. Click Save.
7. To review account information, click the Student name to view Students > Student Info.
8. Click the Parent name to open Users > User Info.
9. To deny an account request or remove an account verification, click the delete button (black minus sign).
Denying a parent's request does not delete the parent portal account that has been created. The parent will not be granted access to the student's information and will continue to see the alert prompting them to visit the student's school prior to gaining access to the student's information.
