How do I get my student’s username and password?
You can log into your Home Access Center via your parent account to view the username and password for all of your students. If you are new to CCPS you will receive a Registration email soon after the school enrolls your student. Follow the steps in that email to create your account. If you don’t receive the email please reach out to your School Registrar. They have the ability to re-send the email to you.
I don’t know my student’s username or password. Where can I find this information?
You can find your student’s login information on the Registration page in Home Access Center. https://mystudent.carrollk12.org/homeaccess
Your Home Access Center username (i.e. for the parent or guardian) is the email address you provided to the school on your student’s emergency card. You can Request/Forgot Password if you haven’t logged in before or have forgotten your password.
How do I add or update the email address the school has on file for me?
My computer is remembering my oldest student’s login and I can’t get my younger student logged in.
How do I use the barcode to login to Clever?
This is referred to as a Clever ‘Badge’. In order to login with the badge, you need a webcam setup on your computer.
• Go to https://clever.com/in/carrollk12
• Click the Clever Badge Log In icon.
• Click 'Allow' in the browser prompt to give Clever access to their camera.
• The webcam will activate, so the student can hold their badge up to the camera. Once the sensors recognize the code, the screen border will flash green.
• Students will then be redirected to their Clever Portal.
I can log in to the app, but I cannot access the resources.

What personal information does Google collect?
When creating a student account, Carroll County Public Schools may provide Google with certain personal information about the student, including, for example, a name. When a student uses Google services, Google also collects information based on the use of those services. This includes:
1. Device information, such as the hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone number
2. Log information, including details of how a user used Google services, device event information, and the user's Internet protocol (IP) address
3. Location information, as determined by various technologies including IP address, GPS, and other sensors
4. Unique application numbers, such as application version number
5. Cookies or similar technologies which are used to collect and store information about a browser or device, such as preferred language and other settings.
How does Google use this information?
In Google Workspace for Education Core Services, Google uses student personal information to provide, maintain, and protect the services. Google does not serve ads in the Core Services or use personal information collected in the Core Services for advertising purposes.
In Google Additional Services, Google uses the information collected from all Additional Services to provide, maintain, protect and improve them, to develop new ones, and to protect Google and its users. Google may also use this information to offer tailored content, such as more relevant search results. Google may combine personal information from one service with information, including personal information, from other Google services.
Does Google use student personal information for users in K-12 schools to target advertising?
Will Google disclose my child's personal information?
Google will not share personal information with companies, organizations and individuals outside of Google unless one of the following circumstances applies:
1. With parental or guardian consent. Google will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Google when it has parents' consent (for users below the age of consent), which may be obtained through Google Workspace for Education schools.
2. With Carroll County Public Schools Google Workspace for Education accounts, because they are school-managed accounts, give administrators access to information stored in them.
3. For external processing. Google may provide personal information to affiliates or other trusted businesses or persons to process it for Google, based on Google's instructions and in compliance with the Google Workspace for Education privacy notice and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
4. For legal reasons. Google will share personal information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of Google if it has a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:
1. meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request.
2. enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations.
3. detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
4. protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Google, Google users or the public as required or permitted by law.
Google also shares non-personal information -- such as trends about the use of its services -- publicly and with its partners.
