Registration

The Programs of Western Pennsylvania School for the Deaf uses Alma Start: Student Re-registration for the annual update of your student’s information. The system is a secure and green process, which allows the school to verify all student demographic, emergency and medical information for your child prior to the start of the new school year. The system will also allow you to electronically sign the annual permission forms for school district policies. In short, this online process replaces all the hard copy student registration and permission forms that your child brings home on the first day of school. You will need to complete this before school starts each school year.

In addition to educator tools, Alma offers a parent and student dashboard to help the student’s support system stay informed and on top of their learning. Alma provides access to:

• School calendar
• Staff Directory
• Class Lists
• Attendance History
• Assignments
• Grades/ Notes
