Parent Access is a component of Genesis — our student information system. It allows us to provide you with a safe and secure way to view academic information about your children in one portal via the Internet.
The Parent Portal allows you to access your child’s attendance and grades from your computer, as well as communicate with the teacher! We have found that some email providers send the Genesis Parent Portal Welcome email to your "Spam" folder.
Your Genesis student login ID is the same as your google account. Firstinitial lastname12@mpsdnj.us. The number represents the year of graduation. For example jsmith12@mpsdnj.us.
Parents are set up for Parent Access when they register their child for school the first time. If you do not think you have a Parent Access account, or want to set up a second account for your spouse, send an email from an email address we have on file that you wish to register with to: parentaccess@montclair. k12. nj.
Parents who have an account can login to check their child's (or children's) academic progress in their classes. Through the Parent Module parents and/or guardians may also be asked to fill out forms that may be required by the school district.
Parents who do not have access to the Parent Module can download and printout an application form. Please fill out the form completely and promptly return it to the school so that the account can be created by Computer Services. Once the account has been created the parent will receive an email with their login information.

Parents are set up for Parent Access when they register their child for school the first time.

Parents can receive emails or text messages automatically for the following actions: A new form has been posted for you (Messages) A new document has been posted for you (Messages) A grade has been updated in a teacher’s gradebook (Gradebook grades) A letter has been generated for one of your children (Letters)
All students in grades 6 - 12 have their own access accounts. Because of this there is no need to let them use your account or give them your password. Student accounts do NOT have the ability to see contact information or sign forms electronically, but they can see everything else the parent account can see.
In this era of Internet access, it is important to always properly close your sessions so that unauthorized persons cannot gain access to your information. This applies not only to Genesis, but to every Internet/Web application you use.
If your child is in Valley View and has separate courses, Class Attendance shows you their attendance for each separate subject. You must click the 'Class Attendance' tab to find this information . (This will not be active until we return to an all in-person schedule)
Remember to click the "Save All Changes" button whenever you add or modify information.
Watchung Borough is happy to announce that we are moving from Powerschool to Genesis for our student information and student gradebooks.
