Schooltool Student Portal Frequently Asked Questions

Student Portal Information

The Oneida City School District uses Schooltool as its Student Data Management System. A component of this system is a secure, web-based portal for accessing student’s grades, attendance and other information. The District has long provided parents and legal guardians of students in grades 4-12 access to information in Schooltool through the Parent Portal as a way of encouraging participation in a child’s education and improving communication between students, parents/guardians, and District Staff. Now, students in grades 6-12 will have access to the same information with their own usernames and passwords.

 

Is Student Portal the same thing as Parent Portal?

Yes. The platform is the same.

 

How do I sign up?

All students will be registered automatically for student portal. Any parent that does not want their student to have access to student portal will need to fill out the form and return it to the secretary in the main office. The main office will then notify the IT department.

 

What information will students see when they log in?

  • First Name, Last Name & Home Address
  • Counselor Name
  • Current Grade
  • Teacher

Do students get to see information for their siblings that go to school in the district?

No. Students will only see information pertaining to themselves.

 

What is my username and password?

All students currently have a log in username and password at school.  Students in grades 6-12 will use the same username and password they use to log in to the network at school.

 

What if I need to change my password?

All student username and passwords are maintained by the Oneida City School District Technology Department.  If a student feels that their password has been compromised they need to speak to their teacher or guidance counselor who will contact the IT department for a password reset.

 

Can any changes be made in Student Portal?

No. Student Portal is for viewing only. No changes can be made.

 

What if the Student Portal shows an incorrect grade or attendance information?

I signed the form to have my student blocked from Student Portal, but have since changed my mind. How do I sign back up?
