What is ParentConnection?

Irving ISD uses ParentConnection and StudentConnection where parents and students (grades 2-12) may log into the GradeSpeed system and view a student's grades and attendance.  In the Grade section, cumulative averages for the year may be viewed.   When you click on an subject average link, the bottom detailed view will pop up, explaining the assignments.  In addition, you may view the cumulative attendance record.

         

To sign up for ParentConnection, follow the steps below.

To use StudentConnection, go to  https://gradespeed.irvingisd.net/StudentConnection/ or go to www.irvingisd.net and click on Students and Elementary, your student will need his H drive login.  Students in grades 3-12 will know this login.  After logging in, you should click on Grades or Attendance.

If you have any questions or need help with this process, please call (972-600-4530) or email Dawn Richardson (click name link).
