Good evening, Following is some information on how parents can access report cards data in MIStar ParentConnect and how schools can help parents with login info if parents can’t login. Please note that if a parent uses ParentConnect, he/she should be able to see data for all their students and do not require separate logins for the different schools.
1. How do parents login to ParentConnect? To login to ParentConnect, parents need their PIN and password; below are the steps to gain access To Parent Connect.Option 1 (Screen below – Recommended): Parents go to DearbornSchools web site then ParentConnectlink. If they don’t know the login info, they click (Need Your Login Information) link and it will prompt them to enter their email address as provided to the school and entered in MIStar (Menu/Enrollment/Student Editor/Contacts) and click Submit. This process emails them their PIN and Password.
Option 2: please email the school’s principal for alternative way if you have no internet access. Principal’s email is: aburusm@dearbornschools.org

Please make sure to read everything below:
We are in week 4 of remote learning, I hope it is going okay for everyone. I have set up several occasions for asking/answering questions, keeping in touch, and doing as much as I can to help everyone in several ways. Every week, twice a week, Tuesday and Friday, I host a google hangout video conference for our class. I also have a separate one-on-one document for students to sign up for any extra help, questions, or any parent help that is needed. Make sure you take advantage of these opportunities.
With our remote and online learning continuing for the rest of the school year, I wanted to inform you I have been tracking who does and does not complete their work. I will continue to be tracking, the information of who does their work and does not do their work does go to Mr. Abu-Rus and the district. I am and have been sending individual messages to those who are not completing every assignment, please make sure you do so. Moving forward, as I submit the information of who does and does not complete their work, you may receive phone calls or messages from the principal, myself, or anyone from the district if you are not completing your online tasks, it is vital to complete all assigned tasks.
Please continue to email or ClassDojo message me if you have any concerns or questions please feel free to contact me.
