District 203 has several methods of communication available to its stakeholders: i-Parent, a web-based system enabling parents to access student-specific information; and Talk203, a phone callout/e-mail system powered by Connect-ED.

i-Parent Student Information System

District 203 is pleased to offer i-Parent, an online system that allows parents to view student schedules, attendance, discipline and grades (where available). i-Parent is in use at the high school and junior high school levels.

Parents receive printed copies of one-time-use access keys, which are necessary to initially register parent accounts. Parents with keys will be able to access available information about their younger students at the various participating schools as well.

When entering your access key during your intial account registration, please take care to type the key EXACTLY as written. There are no spaces, and special characters such as curly and straight brackets must be entered correctly to complete the registration.

To access the system, please click the i-Parent graphic at the top of this web page. On the i-Parent login page, our 4-digit District number to enter is 9203.

Important note to AOL users: the AOL browser cannot be used with i-Parent. Please use other web browser software to register and access your i-Parent account.

Revising personal contact information

Parents are encouraged to update certain personal information online through i-Parent, such as email address, work and cell phone numbers. You may also add an additional phone number designated as “Text/SMS/Pager” that can be used for emergency text messaging to your cell phone. See How to update personal information through i-Parent (PDF, 247 KB) for detailed written instructions.

Some personal information cannot be changed through i-Parent, such as home phone number and address. If you wish to change information you do not see available, you must contact the main office of your child’s school (or the registrar at the high schools) to have these changes made in the Student Information System. To obtain school phone numbers, please see the Links to Schools page.

These i-Parent user documents are available:

Talk203 Telephone and E-mail Information System

In November of 2008, District 203 combined telephone callouts and sending of e-mail into one system, powered by Connect-ED. This system is used for emergency school closing information or other matters of urgency, as well as informational calls and e-mails regarding events in individual schools and throughout the District.

Talk203 for Custodial Parents/Guardians

Custodial parents/guardians of District 203 students are automatically included in messaging from the District and their student(s) school(s). Talk203, powered by Connect-ED, is tied into our Student Information System (SIS). There are no online Talk203 accounts to manage and school/grade changes each year are automatically implemented.

Revising personal contact information

Because Talk203 is connected to data in our SIS, changes in email address must be made directly in your student's record. Parents may do this through their i-Parent account, as described on this page, or by calling the school directly. After the information is changed in the SIS, those changes will automatically flow into Talk203.

Parents are encouraged to update certain personal information online through i-Parent, such as email address, work and cell phone numbers. You may also add an additional phone number designated as “Text/SMS/Pager” that can be used for emergency text messaging to your cell phone. See the i-Parent information above for details on how to access your i-Parent account. See How to update personal information through i-Parent (PDF, 247 KB) for detailed written instructions.

Some personal information cannot be changed through i-Parent, such as home phone number and address. If you wish to change information that you do not see available, you must contact the main office of your child’s school (or the registrar at the high schools) to have these changes made in the Student Information System. To obtain school phone numbers, please see the Links to Schools page.
