Akron Public Schools proudly offers to all students and guardians access to schedules, grades, teacher contact information, class assignments, and attendance through Home Access Center (HAC). HAC allows for users to stay up to date on the grades and progress being made in courses throughout the school year.
Akron Public Schools is committed to providing a safe and supportive learning environment for all students. With that said, bullying in any form—whether physical, verbal, or online—is taken very seriously and will not be tolerated. Every student deserves to feel safe and respected at school, which is part of our Blueprint for Excellence - The Strategic Plan, Cornerstone 1: Culture of Safety and Belonging.
As the second half of the school year begins, it's crucial to ensure that your child's emergency contact information in our student information system is accurate and up-to-date. We kindly ask that you review and update your child’s emergency contact information by February 28, 2025.
Second semester is a great time to continue working on your goals for the year, set new goals and strive to be your best. Attending school helps you achieve those goals and be your best. So, make attendance a priority in 2025 because ATTENDANCE + ENGAGEMENT = SUCCESS
