Student Supply Lists
NEW TO PEIRCE
Welcome to Peirce! We created this guide to help you get started as a new member of the Peirce community.
1. Sign up for Aspen PARENT PORTAL
This is critical because we need your help at home in making sure our students maintain good academic standing. It takes less than five minutes to sign up and you can set up automatic alerts that notify you when your child's grades drop below a pre-determined grade.
To sign up, please contact the Lynn or Sally in the Peirce Main Office at 773-534-2440, and provide your up-to-date email address to request a Parent Portal account in Aspen. Once parent contact information has been verified by the school, parents will receive a signup email from Aspen. If you don’t receive the signup email, we recommend to check your Spam folder. If you are unable to locate the email, please contact the main office for assistance.
Check out the video resources along the right-hand pane of portal sign-up page for English and Spanish assistance on the registration process, how to set up text messages and how to navigate the mobile and desktop versions.
