ALL students must complete a password change! Click arrow on the right for instructions.

All Students 6-12 are required to REGISTER for Self-Service Password Reset at this location

https://aka.ms/ssprsetup

They must complete this registration and will continue to be prompted until registration is complete. Please do not skip this step.

Starting today, when new and previous students log into anything affiliated with their school computer login, they will be forced to register for Self Service Password Reset. THIS DOES NOT CHANGE THEIR PASSWORD. It simply is a way to register for if/when a student does forget their school password, they can reset it on their own.

Students will be prompted to complete the sign-up process using their existing school username ([email protected])  and password the next time they login to anything Microsoft related (O365 or Clever). This doesn't change the password, it just registers the student to change later if forgotten.
If the student forgets or needs to change the student password in the future: After the student has completed the registration process, the student can use the following link https://aka.ms/sspr or click on "Can't access your account?" on the sign-on page to reset or unlock the account from any device. These links are located on the Tech resources page and Student resources page on the school website as well.
