How to Find Your Student's SSID
Your SSID is a 10-digit Statewide Student Identifier used for school records.
Here are the fastest ways to find it.
1. Look in your school portal account
If your district uses an online portal, the SSID may be listed in your student’s profile.
2. Check your student’s report card or school transcript
The SSID is often printed on official documents (Transcript, Report Card, etc).
3. Contact your school office
If you still cannot find it, call or visit your school office and ask for the SSID.
4. Check enrollment confirmation or registration paperwork
Documents you received when enrolling your student may include the SSID.
