The Virgin Islands Department of Education (VIDE) is committed to keeping parents, guardians, students, employees, and the community informed and connected. We are excited to launch VIDE Alerts, an advanced notification platform that delivers real-time updates directly to your preferred communication method, including your mobile device.
With VIDE Alerts, you will receive instant notifications on school closures, early dismissals, weather alerts, safety concerns, other time-sensitive and critical announcements.
Designed with you in mind, this platform ensures that important updates reach you when they matter most. Registering is quick and easy: simply visit www.vide.vi/stayconnected and sign up today!
In addition to VIDE Alerts, parents and guardians are encouraged to sign up for PowerSchool, a crucial platform that connects you to your child’s academic progress.
Through PowerSchool, you can access real-time student grade updates, assignment scores, attendance records, class schedules, school bulletins and announcements.
VIDE acknowledges concerns raised regarding the security of PowerSchool and assures stakeholders that these concerns have been addressed when brought to our attention. While there have been isolated instances of input errors, the Department has taken swift action to safeguard student data and remains vigilant in ensuring information security.
Additionally, VIDE remains transparent in providing updates regarding the December 2024 nationwide PowerSchool data breach, which occurred off-site at PowerSchool’s facilities. No action by the Department or individual schools contributed to this breach. VIDE continues to receive updates from PowerSchool and will keep all stakeholders informed as new information becomes available.
Don’t delay! Stay informed and connected! Sign up for VIDE Alerts today by visit www.vide.vi/stayconnected and ensure you’re registered for PowerSchool to stay engaged in your child’s academic journey.
Together, we are transforming today’s learners into tomorrow’s leaders!
