Please also note that Family File is currently open for all HCPSS families to update information about their child/children for the 2021-2022 school year.  Please remember that Family File must be updated every school year.  HCPSS uses Family File for parents/guardians to complete emergency information.  Parents/guardians must verify and/or update information for each child, and can do so by logging in to HCPSS Connect.  Parents who have forgotten their login credentials may click here for help. Parents who are new to the Howard County Public School System will receive a welcome email with instructions to activate an account. 

(Please note- change of address may not be made through Family File.  If you have recently moved, please contact our Student Services Secretary, April Snyder at april_snyder@hcpss.org as soon as possible)
