- After you confirm your email address, please return to the Pikmykid parent app and continue to the next step.
- Fill the fields for your First and Last Name. Do NOT use your student’s name. This is your guardian profile for security purposes.
- Choose a secure & private password for your account. Please follow the recommended guidelines listed on your app screen for security.
- Please select the option how you would like to get registered on the app.
- Once you have finished registering your account, the app will search our records to find a match between the guardian information you have provided & student records from the school.
- If a match is found you can proceed and access your student’s information in the app.
- If a match is not found automatically, the app will request some additional basic information from you so our expert support team members can guide you on establishing a parent-student connection.
- If you are someone who helps pick up students but is not one of the primary legal guardians – do not worry – a connection will be made once the guardians assign you pick-up responsibilities for the student in their app.
