  • Reminder: Please remember to update your contact information in Family File by logging into HCPSS Connect . This information must be updated annually even if you do not have any changes. You will still need to click through each screen and click submit at the end in order for your Family File to be considered complete. We’d like Dunloggin to be the first middle school to have 100% of the Family File information to be fully updated, so visit HCPSS Connect today and click submit on the final screen! If you are a parent new to HCPSS, you will receive a welcome email with instructions to activate your account. 

 

  • Parents/Guardians: Students in grades 6-12 have had restricted Office 365 email and G Suite accounts that only permit sending to and receiving from other HCPSS accounts.  Beginning in the 2018-19 school year, secondary students will have the ability to use their “@inst.hcpss.org” email account to send and receive email outside of HCPSS.  They will also have the ability to share items (Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drive) from their G Suite to outside HCPSS domains, or non-HCPSS accounts.   School librarians will include information and lessons about these changes during media orientation at the beginning of the school year.  Students will learn how to access the email account, share and send information safely to users outside HCPSS, and maintain password security.
