Welcome to the Parent Portal

The SMUS Parent Portal provides parents with customized and secure access to our School Data System (SDS). With a single username and password, you can access the following information:

• Report cards for your children
• Financial statements for all student accounts for which you are responsible
• Re-registration forms for your children
• Health information for your children
• Student directory
• Change of personal information request and student directory settings

Online Student Directory: Changing Settings or Opting Out

By default, all SMUS families' contact information -- including names, email addresses, home addresses and telephone numbers -- will appear in the online student directory. If you do not want to be listed in the directory, or if you want to omit some of your contact information, you must change your default settings in the parent portal before the directory becomes available on Friday, September 27, 2013.

To change your default setttings:

1. Log on to your parent portal account at https://sds.smus.bc.ca/index.php?next_page=login.php. If you have trouble logging in, send an email to sdshelp [at] smus [dot] ca (subject: Help%20with%20my%20Portal%20Portal%20Account) or call Rob Przybylski at 250-370-6192.
2. From the main menu, click on Parent Menu, then choose Update My Information.
3. If you do not want any information about you accessible to other parents through the student directory, select Opt out of the online student directory.
4. If you want to be listed, but would like to keep some of your contact details private, deselect the checkboxes next to the items you do not want to appear in the directory. If you deselect all the checkboxes, only your child's name and grade will appear in the directory.
5. Click on the Submit Update Request button. Your student directory privacy settings will take effect immediately.

You will be able to change your privacy settings for the online student directory at any time.

Request Updates to Your Information

While you are on the Update My Information page, you may also want to double-check the information we have on file for your family in the SMUS Database Information section. If any of the details need updating, edit the relevant fields and click on the Submit Data Update Request button. Once the data centre has reviewed verified the changes (within two business days), the edits will be reflected in your record.

SMUS Online Health Form

In preparation for the 2013-2014 school year, we require you to fill out or update the online health form through your parent portal account before the start of the school year. It is extremely important that you complete or update this form to ensure that the school is equipped with the information we need to care properly for your child.

Common questions as well as instructions on how to access and complete the form are available here.
