HSE Student Accounts

This article gives information about HSE Schools student accounts, including password formats.

 Format

Student passwords are set automatically in a standardized format. Please see your building tech for further details, if necessary.

 Change of format beginning with Grade 5

Beginning in grade 5, student passwords change and begin with a capital ‘H.’ Everything else about the format remains the same.

 Other Information

The same student account has many uses, including (but not limited to) the following:

  • Logging into HSE computers, including desktop computers in computer labs and other classrooms

  • Logging into Canvas

  • Logging into Clever

  • Connecting to Wi-Fi

  • Authenticating with our internet filter, Securly

You may see references on various websites and apps to log in with ‘Active Directory' or 'AD,’ ‘Azure,' or ‘Azure AD.' These are different systems used by HSE Schools to maintain staff and student accounts. If a site offers the option to log in using one of those methods, it refers to the accounts outlined above.

 Skyward

Skyward does NOT use the same account system outlined above. While it is possible that login names and passwords may be similar or the same as those referenced above, it is important to check with a building registrar or guidance office, or a building tech to clarify Skyward login credentials.
