Skyward Student Access Login Instructions

Course selection for the following school year will be held by Central and Stevens High Schools during the month of February. Students are asked to select the courses they will take during the next academic year. Course availability is based on student course requests and staffing.

Students must give careful consideration to their course planning and should consult with counselors, parent/guardian, and/or teachers. Parent/guardian involvement is recommended prior to the student finalizing their course selection.

Please follow the link to the High School your child(ren) will be attending for dates/times and additional school specific information.

Skyward Student Access is used by students to check their own attendance, grades, lunch account status, register for classes and later in the spring schedule classes for the next school year.

Adding a Class

At Central and Stevens High Schools, courses may be added on a space available basis during the first three (3) class meet times of a new semester. Students are responsible for making up any schoolwork missed by the late addition of a class to their schedule.

Course Cancelations

Course offerings not having sufficient enrollment after registration will be discontinued for the next school year.

Dropping a Class After Registration

Since staffing is based on students’ course selections, dropping a class after registration will only be done to accommodate extenuating circumstances. Students who are dropped administratively from a course will receive a Withdraw Fail (WF), which is recorded on transcript for the entire course (semester or year), and it will figure into their GPA as a zero. Students who elect to not attend a course and are subsequently dropped will not receive credit and will receive a WF, which will figure into their GPA.

Reading Requirement

Students in grades 9 through 12 who have not met the district’s reading requirement must continue to enroll in reading until the 9.0 grade level reading equivalency is met, unless the IEP Team has determined this course is not required. Students must demonstrate the ninth-grade level of reading proficiency on a district adopted standardized test in order to graduate. Students on Active IEP may be allowed to graduate without this course as determined by the IEP Team. To learn more about this reading requirement, please reference District Code IKF.
