Student and Parent Resources

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.

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.

If you need to update your email address, you will need to reach out to your student’s school directly.

Previous login information could be saved in the browser’s Cache. It is recommended to clear your Cache if you need to switch accounts, or log in to the other student’s account with a different internet browser.

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.

Please reach out to your student’s teacher. All CCPS staff are available via email. You can locate email addresses on the school's website.

The Request/Forgot password is only to be used for parent accounts. After you log in, you will have access to all of your students’ usernames and passwords.

Please make sure you are including the @star.carrollk12.org suffix AFTER their username.

If using Clever, be sure to click 'Login with Active Directory.'
Then enter the username you provided (including the @star.carrollk12.org)
When prompted, enter the password

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.

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.

No. For Google Workspace for Education users in primary and secondary (K-12) schools, Google does not use any user personal information (or any information associated with a Google Workspace for Education Account) to target ads, whether in Core Services or in other Additional Services accessed while using a Google Workspace for Education account.

​We may allow students to access Google services such as Google Docs and Sites, which include features where users can share information with others or publicly. When users share information publicly, it may be indexed by search engines, including Google.
 

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.

If you have questions about our use of Google's Google Workspace for Education accounts or the choices available to you, please contact your school administrator. If you want to learn more about how Google collects, uses, and discloses personal information to provide services to us, please review the Google Workspace for Education Privacy Center, the Google Workspace for Education Privacy Notice, and the Google Privacy Policy 
 

The Core Google Workspace for Education services is provided to us under Google's Apps for Education agreement.
