Later this evening, an invitation to parents and guardians. Depending on the contact information we have on file, you may receive an invitation by text message, email, or both.
A few important things to know:
📧 A valid email address and/or cell phone number must be on file for you to access your guardian account.
🆕 If your child is a new student, your guardian information may not have been entered into WVEIS yet. Don't worry if you don't receive an invitation right away. Once your guardian information is added to WVEIS and synced with our system, your guardian account will be created.
👨👩👧 Invitations are tied to the parent/guardian contact information we have on file, so please make sure your school has your current email address and cell phone number.
We encourage all parents and guardians to sign up once you receive your invitation. Apptegy Rooms/Connect will be an important communication tool for Clay County Schools, and we want to make sure every family is connected.
