Parent Registration for Website/Edulink Access
This year parents may register to become members of their child’s class web page on the Kerrydale web site. Once it is created, Parents will also use the same login to access Edulink Intouch. Parents who wish to register must obtain an authorization letter in person at the Kerrydale Main Office. A photo ID is required. This authorization letter contains a passcode which permits parents to register online (Kerrydale home page, “New User Registration”).
