Before the start of school each year, we ask that families complete the online Annual Update to ensure that the District has your family’s current phone numbers, mailing address, email addresses, emergency contacts and other important information about your student. The Annual Update also enables families to grant permission for field trips, to acknowledge that you and your student have received and read the District Handbook and to acknowledge that your student has read the 1:1 Chromebook Handbook and signed the Student Chromebook Contract. Completing the Annual Update is especially important this year as we will begin the year with remote learning for all students.
Families may begin the Annual Update process online on Monday, August 10.
Families with returning students in grades K-12 must complete the online annual update (this includes families with incoming kindergarten students who attended a District preschool program in 2019-2020).
Families with newly registered students in grades K-12 do not need to complete the online Annual Update, as long as the information provided at the time of registration is still current.
Completing the Annual Update is easy:
Visit gateway.shaker.org
Your username is the student ID number of the youngest District student in the household
Your password is the youngest returning grade K-12 student’s 8-digit date of birth without spaces or marks (mmddyyyy)
Please note: You will receive a separate email with the subject line "Annual Update Not Completed" from
[email protected] for each Shaker Heights Schools student registered in your household. This email will contain your family’s username and password.
