Important Reminder for Student accounts & Essential Information for Best Practices and Student Data Privacy & Security from the
Boise School District
In recent weeks we have been contacted by a few parents and staff concerning security issues with student passwords. Please note that
students have an option to reset passwords by going to https://myaccount.boiseschools.org to register for self service password reset.
Students are encouraged to use the self service password reset service at https://myaccount.boiseschools.org. Maintaining current and
private passwords is an important step in maintaining student data privacy & security and an important individual step in practicing
appropriate Digital Citizenship and Responsible Use with all digital tools. Please review the Boise School District Responsibility Use of
Technology, Access and Digital Communication.
