ParentVUE vs SparkCards

The ParentVUE Mobile application helps parents stay informed and connected by providing day-to-day insight into their child’s academic experience. ParentVUE Mobile for the iPhone/iPod Touch works with the Synergy™ student information system in much the same way as the ParentVUE web portal, allowing parents to access near real-time information on assignments and scores, attendance, and demographic information. ParentVUE offers parents a single sign-on to view all of their children’s information regardless of school. How to find District URL and Login Information:   The ParentVUE app uses the same user login as the web-based ParentVUE portal.  If you need help please contact your School District’s Administration office for access URL and ParentVUE login information.   Requirements: • Only school districts using the Synergy™ student information system version 6.5 and higher can support the ParentVUE for the iPhone application. • Requires wireless or 3G Internet connection. • The ParentVUE Mobile for the iPhone/iPod Touch app uses same user login as the web-based ParentVUE portal. Please contact your School District’s Administration office to verify Synergy™ version and ParentVUE login information.
