INFORMATION OF THE USE OF OFFICE 365

All students in the Vancouver School Board have access to Office 365.  When students or parents sign into Office 365, they have access to SpacesEDU as well as several other apps (i.e., Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Notebook, Excel, Teams etc.).

BELOW IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR YOU TO BE ABLE TO ACCESS YOUR CHILD'S OFFICE 365 ACCOUNT.

Student Name:

Student Number:

PEN Number:

Your child’s student number is the number assigned by the school district and is used as part of your child’s VSB email address. 

Your child’s Student Personal Identification Number or PEN is assigned by the Ministry of Education and is with your child throughout their schooling despite which school they go to (within British Columbia).  This is a very confidential number- just like your SIN number.  Please keep this number in a secure location and remind your child not to share it with anyone but a trusted adult.

Students' VSB student number and PEN were communicated home to families at the beginning of the school year but if you misplaced it then please contact your child's classroom teacher.

TO RESET YOUR CHILD'S PASSWORD

All students need to reset their password this school year because of a system-wide restart over the summer.  Classroom teachers will be assigning passwords to your child and communicating this information home but if you would like to change this password or it is lost or forgotten, use the information below to reset your child’s password. 

Because this log-in information will also be used at school, it is important your child has this password written somewhere safe that they can access, or they have memorized it.  Please remind your child never to share their password with anyone but a trusted adult.
