Parents and Guardians Schoology Instructions

Teachers in the Peninsula School District will be using Schoology with their students as a Learning Management System. This interface allows teachers and students to collaborate with each other and interact inside and outside of the four walls of the classroom. You can create a Schoology account and link it to your child’s account so that you can monitor your child’s progress, see their course materials, submissions, and grades.

The directions detailed below will walk parents/guardians through the process of setting up a Parent Schoology account and linking to your child's account. This is a one-time setup and will remain active the entire time your child is enrolled in the Peninsula School District. The video linked here walks through all of the directions listed below.

1. Acquires your child's unique Parent Access Code. This is a code that is unique to each student that is enrolled in the Peninsula School District. The code is associated with the student rather than the individual courses that they are enrolled in.   
   
   Options for gaining the Parent Access Code: 
   a. Parent Access Codes can be accessed within the Parent Portal. 
   b. Contact your child's teacher for your child's unique Parent Access Code. Parents of middle and/or high school students only need to contact one of your child's teachers. 
2. Go to the Schoology website. 
3. In the top right corner of the screen, click on Sign Up. 
   
4. From the next window, select Parent.
   
5. Enter the Parent Access Code provided by the Peninsula School District. Don't have a Parent Access Code? Please request one from your child’s teacher.
   
6. You will need to create a Schoology account for yourself by entering your name, email address, and creating a password. You may also want to uncheck the box for Receive periodic Schoology updates. Click Register.
    
7. Congratulations! You should now have a Schoology account that is connected to your child's account. Additional children can be added to your account by following the directions linked here.
