FAQs: 
¥ What if I have received confirmation of a transfer but it still shows me going to the old school? o It may not have been coded on our side. Registrars are now off contract, so the remaining changes may not be made until after July 20th. DO NOT complete registration at this time because it will NOT carry over. Please wait to register once the adjustment has been made. 




¥ What if I didnÕt apply for a transfer but it shows me going to a campus that I did not expect? o First, check the district school locator to verify the campus you are assigned to according to your address. You can find the locator here: School Locator 

o If the school in Skyward does not match what the locator says and you did not apply for a transfer, there are a few possible explanations: . Your student is a part of a program only offered at a specific campus. This is common with Special Education students, Bilingual Education students, and PK students participating in Head Start 

. Your student had a transfer in place from a previous year that has carried over. 

. There is an error on the Skyward end of things. 




o If the error is a result of these things, please check back after July 20th, 2020. Errors from the Skyward end of things and changes due to transfers should be in place at that point. You can also contact the campus with questions about special programs or changes you did not expect to see at that time. 

o If you are not assigned to the campus you expect, DO NOT register at this time. It will not carry over. 




¥ Should I go ahead and register if it isnÕt showing the right school or the school I expect? o No. It will not carry over. Please wait until it has been corrected. 




¥ What if I need to make a change to a Òread onlyÓ field? o You can contact the campus once the registrars return to work on July 13th, 2020. 




¥ What if I get a red message that says ÒAll fields with bold text and borders are currently waiting for approval by the districtÓ?  
o You can still save that step and move on. It just means that the district will be looking at that data prior to accepting the registration. This is mainly done to ensure data is accurate and/or that we have documentation on file to go with the change. 




¥ What if I need to change something in a step I already completed? o If you do want to make edits to a certain step, select that step on the right and click the button at the bottom that says ÒEdit Step #Ó 




¥ How do I know I have completed a step?  o You will see a green check next to the step on the right side of the screen. This indicates that you have completed that step and do not need to revisit it. 




¥ Why do I have to fill out the same forms every year? o Crowley ISD wants to stay updated on the most current information to better serve our students and families. It is also important to have the most up to date information when we report statistics and data to the state. 




¥ What if I donÕt know my password to get into skyward?  o See example below: 





Skyward Front
 
¥ What if I never get the email to reset my password? o That means that the email address we have for you in the system may not be accurate. Once the campuses re-open on July 13th, you will contact the campus to update your email address. DonÕt worry! You will still have plenty of time to complete registration! 




¥ What if my question is not answered by this document? o The district re-opens on the 13th. You will be able to contact the campuses for further assistance with registration.
