How Students are linked to Parent and Guardian Accounts

Students are linked to your Source account when the Parent/Guardian check box is selected and your email address is identical on each student’s school Demographics record.  If you have a Source account, but a student is missing, contact the school to update your email address and confirm the Parent/Guardian box is selected.  Approximately 30 minutes after information is updated, clear the cache on your browser, close, reopen and log in. The student should appear on your account.

For assistance, please contact sourcesupport@daves-studio.com

To update your parent/guardian Source username

Parent and guardian Source usernames are linked to the email address on record at each student’s school.  To change or update your email address, contact the main office at each student’s school and provide the following information:

  • Your full name and relationship to the student
  • The email address you wish to use
  • Student’s full name
  • Student’s 7 digit Seattle Schools student ID#

Allow 30 minutes for the change to sync with the Source, then set up your account with the new email address.

Elementary Progress Reports and Secondary Performance Reports

Elementary Progress Reports and Secondary Performance Reports are found on parent and guardian Source accounts only. If you are logging in with your student’s school account that begins with 1 and ends with @daves-studio.com you will not see this information.

Log in and locate Elementary Progress Reports or Secondary Performance Reports:

  1. Log onto the Source
  2. If you have more than one student, select the name of student under the Source logo at the top, left of the screen.
  3. Select the Performance and Progress Reports link
  4. Click the PDF link to download and save.

If you have trouble, clear the cache on your browser, close and reopen TWICE and try again. Or try a different browser.

If you need assistance, contact sourcesupport@daves-studio.com

The Source Frequently Asked Questions

What do parents and guardians need to set up a Source account?

  • You must be the parent or guardian of a student actively enrolled in SPS.
  • Your valid email address must be on record at each student’s school. 

I forgot my username

Your Source username is the email address you provided for the school record.  If you do not remember, please contact the school.

Is a student missing from your account?

If you have a Source account, but a student is missing, contact the school to update the email address on the student’s school record and confirm the Parent/Guardian box is selected.  Allow about 30 minutes for any changes to sync with the Source.  Clear the cache on your browser, close your browser, reopen and log onto the Source to see the student on your account.

Forget or need to change the password?

Visit our account recovery page.
If you need further assistance, contact sourcesupport@daves-studio.com

Is there an APP to access the Source?

There is an APP through our vendor. The PowerSchool mobile APP does not include SPS customizations found on parent Source accounts including Assessment Scores, Report Cards and Progress Reports.  To see all features, log into the web version of the Source.
If you wish to use the APP, the SPS district code is: KDND
All notifications on the APP are all set to default on. To manage your notifications on the PowerSchool APP:

  • Launch the PowerSchool APP
  • Click the More icon from the lower right
  • Click Account
  • To see more terms, slide the terms you see to the left, to go back, slide to the right
  • To manage Push Notifications
    • Slide the button to the left to turn off Attendance and/or Grade Change notifications
  • To manage Email Notifications
    • If you have more than one child at SPS, select a student
    • Slide each button to the left to turn off the notification you do not wish to receive
    • Repeat for each student

I can log onto my account, but get an error when I try to reach some features:

In most cases, clearing the cache on your browser, closing and reopening TWICE  will resolve the problem. You can also try using a different browser.

Can I manage my password with Keychain Technology?

If you choose to use a Keychain to manage your Source password, at each log in, you may be asked if you would like to update the password.  In order to use the stored password, you must select not now.  SPS is unable to address problems parents and guardians may have with password storage software. 

Where can I find my student’s username?

Log onto your Source account.  Your student’s username will appear next to their photo.

Assignment details out of order?

When using an iPhone to view Source Grade Details, some users may notice assignments are out of order.  To resolve this, refresh the screen by clicking the curved arrow symbol at the top of the screen near the URL.

Why are dots showing up in the password field of the source log on screen?

Typically, if you get the extra dots and cannot log on, it is because you have forgotten your password, have a stored password you have not updated, or someone else used your device and stored a password. Try clearing your cache, delete the dots and type in your password. You may want to set your browser to not store passwords or try a different browser. 

Why do I receive a Security Violation or Unauthorized message/disabled accounts?

If you get a security violation or unauthorized message when trying to set up your Source account, it may be disabled.  To resolve the problem: 

  • Contact the main office of your student’s school to confirm or update your email address.
  • After the email address is confirmed, contact sourcesupport@daves-studio.com to report you have confirmed your email address and need your Source account enabled.

I am Traveling internationally (taking a trip outside the U.S.) Why can’t I access The Source?

The Admissions Office admissions@daves-studio.com has limited international network access for students to official school breaks, like mid-winter or spring break and only upon request. Otherwise, students are to follow the attendance policy for in-person learning.

If you would like to request international network access during an official school break, please submit your request to seattleschools@service-now.com with your student’s name and the dates of school break.

During enrollment, where can I find my student’s school assignment?

The Assignment Lookup Tool is available during enrollment. If you need assistance, please contact Admissions at 206-252-0760 or customer service.
