Be ready when bad weather hits!
The weather is changing! That means it is time to check to make sure SPS has your correct contact information in case we have to let you know about a school delay or closure due to wintry weather.
ParentVue is our online system that allows all families, new and returning, to access and update their family and student information, including contact numbers, email addresses, annual health changes and so much more!
The correct contact information ensures that families and students are receiving all of the important information and notifications shared by their school, teachers and the district.
