First Day Verification

Whether this is your first year as a Spring-Ford parent, or your last, the transition to a new school year can be a bit overwhelming. To help with this process, the Spring-Ford Area School District will utilize online First Day Verification for the 2023-2024 school year.

Parents/guardians may log into Skyward Family Access beginning on August 1, 2023 to complete the First Day Verification process. Families may complete the First Day Verification at a desktop or laptop computer, on a smartphone or tablet. FDV is not available through the Skyward app.

If you do not already have a Skyward password, or if you do not have access to a computer, please contact your child’s school office for assistance. If you have moved please complete the Change of Address form prior to the first day of school.

Please note, teacher information, homerooms and schedules will not be available until your First Day Verification is complete.
