Parent FAQs

1. Why do I have to log in to SOINmail when I am logged into SOIN already? – SOINmail should require no additional password when the user is already logged into SOIN.  If this occurs, please contact Schools-On-I-Net and provide your name, school and login name.
 
2. My child’s name is misspelled – how can I correct this?  -Although most of the child’s demographic information can be changed by logging in as a parent, switching to the child and updating the profile under My Links>My Profile, the actual name of the student cannot be changed this way.  You must call the school office for assistance.
 
3. How do I log –in to my child’s account?  -When logged in as a parent, under the ‘My Children’ icon, click on the red arrow, and then the child’s name.
 
4. When I log in to my account, I cannot access my child’s account, why?  --Please notify the school if your child is not listed under the ‘My Children’ icon as described above in #3.
 
5. How can I forward my SOINMail to another account?  -In SOINmail, at the ‘Options and Styles’ dropdown at top right corner, select ‘Forwarding’ option.  Enter the email address in the field under ‘Forwarding’.
 
6. How can I save forwarded emails?  -On the same forwarding screen described in #5, check the box ‘keep a copy in SOINmail’ 
 
7. I have my SOINMail e-mails currently forwarding to my yahoo account. I need to change it to another account. Could you please let me know how I could do that?  -See #5, then add or change the new email address
 
8.  I am trying to change my password.  However, I am asked a security question before I can change it.  What is my security question?  -You need to choose your own security question.  Make sure it is something easy for you to remember, with the correct answer, of course.
9. How can a student email all students in a class, grade, section, etc?  -Student email addresses are not provided to students.  They can share their own with each other.
 
10.  I sent an e-mail, and it told me it would send a copy to my 'sent' mail but I cannot find it.  Where is it?  -There must be ‘sent’ folder already created for sent emails to be saved.  Otherwise, sent emails are lost.  Create a ‘Sent’ folder to resolve this.
 
11. Why is it when I click on a person's e-mail address the write screen pops up but puts the name of the individual that I want to send the e-mail TO in the BCC line?  Why isn't the selected e-mail address placed in the "TO" field?  -This is a security feature in SOIN, so if there is a group of recipients, they cannot view each other’s email addresses.
 
12.  I can’t remember my security question, how can I reset my password?  -Notify the school during office hours.
