Skyward Family Access: What is it?

Family Access is an application through Dover Area School District’s student information management software, Skyward, that will allow parents to view student attendance, demographics, grades, emergency information, report cards, and more. Each authorized parent or legal guardian is provided with his/her unique login and password for Family Access. You only need one login to access all of your students. The login that is assigned will remain active throughout all of the years that you have a student enrolled in the district. To obtain your login and password, simply contact the building where your student is enrolled. Do not share your login information with your student. Students are provided with their own unique login information to view their grades, assignments, and schedule.

When you log in to Family Access, please take a moment in the Student Information section and verify that the information the district has on file is correct. Please be sure to verify that your e-mail address is correct. If there is any information that needs to be changed, click on “Request Change(s) to My Child’s Information” at the top right of the screen, enter your changes, and click on Save. Your changes will be electronically submitted to the office for approval. Your student’s school office may be contacting you if additional information is required to complete your request. Please note that you cannot change your residential address through Family Access. You MUST visit your student's school and show appropriate proof of residency.

The district is very excited about how Family Access will help you stay informed about your student’s progress and hope that we can use this tool to create a stronger relationship between parents and our school community.
