WMS RedHawk Summer Update #2
June 15, 2026
Note from Our Principal
Dear Wredling Families,
As we close out the school year we get to take the opportunity to celebrate some of the work that is yearlong. One thing we want to highlight is the overall improvement weโve seen in student attendance.
Now what does this mean for us? That means the 46 MORE students have been at school MOST of the school year. That means 16 LESS students have missed more than 10% of the school year. Thatโs nearly 140 MORE hours of instruction they wouldโve otherwise missed. When our families value school attendance, everyone wins! Thank you for being part of our big WIN this school year. Looking forward to more amazing celebrations next school year.
Proud to be a RedHawk
Francesca Favero, Principal
Dear D303 Families
We are excited to share that beginning with the 2026-2027 school year, D303 will be moving to a new Student Information System called Synergy.
For families and students, this means two new online portals for you to access important information: ParentVUE and StudentVUE. These will replace Home Access Center (HAC) as the way you stay connected with your student's gradebook, attendance, report cards, and so much more.
This transition is a step forward for our district, and our staff have been hard at work preparing for it. Behind the scenes, teams have been setting up the new system, transferring student data from our current system to Synergy, and training D303 employees so we are ready to support staff, students, and families.
What you need to know right now:
Home Access Center (HAC) will close on Friday, June 5, 2026. HAC needs to go offline so we can complete the data conversion to the new system. Once it closes, it will no longer be accessible.
Please view and save your student's report cards before June 5, 2026.
In July and August, we will share more information about:
Creating your ParentVUE accounts
Logging in and accessing the new portals
A navigation overview to help you find what you need in the new portal
If you have questions about HAC or need help accessing it before it closes, please reach out to your school's front office.
Thank you for your patience and partnership as we prepare for this exciting change. We look forward to introducing you to ParentVUE and StudentVUE later this summer!
Sincerely,
D303 Communications
