NEW STUDENT ACCOUNTS 
(2008-2009 School Year)

New student accounts have been created in the MISO domain.  You will no longer log onto the STUDENTS domain.  Here is the information you need:

USERNAME:  The Alpha Key ID (NameKey) that's used for Skyward Family Access.  There are some exceptions in that some special characters such as spaces( ), hyphens(-), and apostrophes(') are not allowed and are simply thrown out when creating the username.  Basically the algorithm for the username is the following:
First 5 letters of your last name         followed by
First 3 letters of your first name        followed by
3 digits                                                this number must simply be memorized

Here are some examples:

Name:  Sample Student
  Skyward Logon:  STUDESAM000
  Computer Logon:  STUDESAM000

Name:  Student O'Year
  Skyward Logon:  O'YEASTU000
  Computer Logon:  OYEASTU000

Name:  Le Student
  Skyward Logon:  STUDELE 000
  Computer Logon:  STUDELE000

Name:  Groucho Al
  Skyward Logon:  AL   GRO000
  Computer Logon:  ALGRO000

PASSWORD:  First 4 letters of your last name + your birthday (mm/dd).
You will be asked to change your password when you first log on.  Any of your teachers can reset your password.  When it is reset, it reverts back to the format described above.

INTERACTION WITH YOUR OLD ACCOUNT:
If you have had an old account, the data from your old home directory will be transferred to your new home directory when you first log on.  You will see a message reminding you of that when you first log on.  Please do not log off before the transfer is complete.  You will have READ-only access to your old home directory for the first semester of this school year.  After that the old home directories will be deleted.

BASIC INFORMATION ON YOUR NEW ACCOUNT:

Your new account has several great new features:

1)  Your home directory (aka DIGITAL LOCKER) is larger.  You can store up to 500 MB of data.

2)  You can access your home directory from home.  WebTrekker gives you access to you home directory (referred to as a Digital Locker) from the Internet.  The address for WebTrekker is:  http://webtrekker.edmonds.wednet.edu
