    1. Confirm that you have a SIS ParentVue account and make sure you can log into SIS ParetVue successfully.  If you need a SIS ParentVue account, please complete the Parent Support Request
    2. Using your SIS ParentVue credentials make sure that you can log into Schoology at lms.fcps.edu and that you can see your student's courses. (It is an overnight process once you create your SIS ParentVue account before you can access Schoology. **This step must be completed September 6th in order to attend Open House)
    3. Download and install Zoom on your computer.
  • Please make sure to watch this video to familiarize yourself with how you will access your student's classes in Schoology and locate the Zoom links on Wednesday.

Navigating Schoology to Access the Zoom Links:
