We are excited to have your student at Matheson for a great year of learning. We want to ensure you have the information you need for a successful start to school. Please see the below information regarding online registration, class schedules, back to school night, and the first day of school!
- You are able to delete, edit or add new contacts to your student’s account. Please make sure your student’s contacts are accurate. (It will only allow you to view your top four contacts)
- If you have moved, you can upload a new address verification form. Please make sure it is an approved document (power bill, lease agreement, mortgage agreement.)
- Once you have completed all the necessary steps you will be sent to a screen that says you have completed the process.
- Once you have completed all the necessary forms and have either paid your fees or have been approved for a fee waiver, your student’s schedule will be released.
Registration
With the beginning of the school year, each family will need to complete the online registration process. We have updated our student information system to a program called Focus, which means this year’s registration will be a little different from previous years. However, you will not need to create a new account given that your parent portal account will migrate over to the new system. If you do not have your parent portal account, you can easily set one up with the new Focus system. The process for registration will open on August 1st. This process will be completed online.
Here are a couple things to keep in mind that will be helpful when registering your student.
- When you first login. You must click on the green button “Not yet started- Click to begin in English[ EN]” Until you complete this process you cannot view anything else on the screen.
- If your account doesn’t take you automatically to the green button page, please click on the Forms Summary on the left-hand side of your screen. It will then take you to the correct page.
- If you apply for a fee waiver you will need to upload the proper documentation in order to be approved. You will be denied, no documentation is uploaded.
- The system will ask you if you want to apply for a McKinney Vento. This form is for families who are displaced, (homeless).
