Family File is open for parents to update information about their child/children for the 2019-2020 school year.

Reminder: Family File needs to be updated every school year.

Families that update and complete their Family File will be able to view teacher on August 28th.

HCPSS uses Family File for parents/guardians to complete emergency information. Parents/guardians must verify and/or update information for each child, and can do so by logging in to HCPSS Connect.
Parents new to the Howard County Public School System will receive a welcome email with instructions to activate an account.

Once logged in, parents/guardians will be asked to provide or update the following information:

    Parent/Guardian Contact
    Emergency Contacts
    Medical Information
    Arrival/Dismissal Procedures
    Media Release (photo approval)
    Data Confidentiality

Any family who completes their family file will be able to see their child's homeroom assignment on August 28

 

Points to Rmember:

1. Your student will not be released to anyone who is not listed on the emergency contact page and also have the" release to" button checked. 

2. Please fill out the Early dismissal transportation portion of the file (this is how we will release your child during an early dismissal).  If this method changes during the year please go in and update this information.

 Below are the links to access your families emergency cards to update.
