Aspen Family Portal

The HDSB offers the Aspen Family Portal - a secure online space that provides parents/guardians with convenient access to:

  • Student Information
    View your child’s demographics, contact details, and real-time attendance records.
  • Report Cards
    Access report cards electronically instead of paper copies (unless requested). Once posted, report cards remain in the portal for future reference. Please note that report cards issued before the portal’s launch will not be available.
  • Key Links in One Place
    Quickly access HDSB-approved websites and resources without the need to search or save links.

Activate your Aspen Family Portal Account 

Please use a computer (not a mobile device) and follow these steps to activate an HDSB parent/guardian account in our secure Aspen Student Information System. 
This account is meant to be created by a parent/guardian. A valid e-mail address (the email address on file at your child’s school) is required to verify your identity when requesting an account. Once the account is created, you will be able to login to the HDSB Family Portal.

FAQs

Families who activate their account will gain secure, real-time access to student information, including demographics, contact details and attendance records. 

The portal also serves as a centralized hub, linking families to important and useful HDSB-approved websites, eliminating the need to search for or save essential links. Additionally, families will receive the latest announcements directly through the portal (note: this feature will be available in a future phase).

Report cards will also be easily accessible through the portal:
  • Elementary – Report cards will be delivered electronically, eliminating paper copies unless specifically requested.​
  • Secondary – Report cards, already delivered electronically, will now be accessible directly in the portal—no more logging into SchoolMessenger or searching for secure email links

Families will be able to view and revisit report cards throughout their child’s HDSB journey, with records available from the time the portal is launched.

Your child’s school will continue to provide you with access to information and report cards as you have now.

Yes. The HDSB has robust access criteria to ensure that only those contacts with legal, qualifying access to student records are provided with a secure account.  Once an account is created the account details are located in the Aspen Student Information System, which is managed by the Aspen Vendor and meets industry standards for security and data protection. The HDSB will remove account access when a contact no longer meets the requirements to access student data.

To activate your Aspen Family Portal account, you must have a valid email address on file with your child’s school. The primary email address on file at your child’s school (the one that you use for SchoolMessenger), is the email address that you will use to activate and login to your Aspen Family Portal Account.  
Some families may have created an Aspen account when registering their child for school. If you have already created an Aspen account, you do not need to activate a new one to access the Aspen Family Portal. You can login to your existing account. 
If you did not create an Aspen account when registering your child for school, you can activate your account by using the email address on file at your child’s school.
View instructions above on how to create an account and/or login to an account.

No. You will already have an account created, as long as the email address you created the account with is current and matches the one you have provided the school. Please refer to the instructions above to login into your existing account and/or recover your password.

Please contact the school office that your child/ren attend and provide them with your new email address.

Your portal access to your child/ren depends on your email address. Please contact the school to ensure that the email address that you are using matches that of the primary email address on your contact record at the school. This will be the same email address you use for SchoolMessenger.  
Please do not re-register your students using the OLR in the portal.  If you do not see your students in the Family Tab please contact your school.
The Aspen Family Portal is being launched in a phased approach throughout Spring/Summer 2025. If you do not see one of your children in the Aspen Family Portal, it could be because the school where your child is registered has not yet gone live with the portal. Please look out for an email in the coming months when your child’s school launches the portal.

Please contact the school your child/ren attend to provide them with the correct information.

Yes, but only one account can be created per email address. If parents/guardians use the same shared email, only one user account will exist. The portal will show the name of the parent/guardian who comes first alphabetically. If parents/guardians want separate logins, each parent/guardian must provide a separate, unique primary email address to their child’s school. Once received, we can create a second portal account tied to that new email.​​
