What is FamilyLink?
FamilyLink is Brunswick School Department’s new dynamic Web portal for families, adults and students.  FamilyLink is the alternative to the traditional Parental Access Support System (PASS) portal that Brunswick School Department has used for the past few years.  Aside from more functionality and an updated look, FamilyLink provides real time data.  In other words, as soon as a teacher adds a student’s grades or attendance to their electronic gradebook, the change will show up online.

What is the Difference between FamilyLink and PASS?
The PASS portal provided a static snapshot of student progress data – updated every few hours.  Only one student’s data can be seen at a time (i.e., one login per student). The parent/guardian and student each have a common/shared login and PIN number.

On the other hand, FamilyLink is a live connection to the Schoolmaster system. Once data is changed in Schoolmaster or a teacher’s Schoolmaster Gradebook, the changes are seen immediately via the portal. Once a parent/guardian is logged in, they can switch back and forth between multiple students that are linked to that adult in the Schoolmaster system. Parents and students have unique logins allowing different levels of what the person can view.  For example, a student cannot view a sibling’s data, but a parent can see all of their children’s data.
