Because much of the information that parents need and want is online and a login is required to access it, below is a general overview of these various online sites, what purpose they serve, and login instructions.
ONLINE GRADES
Online Grades provides access to students’ schedule and their most recent progress report or report card.
Grades for Progress Reports and Reports Cards are due from teachers on Mondays as indicated on the school calendar. These reports will normally not be available online until the following Tuesday evening, except mid-term grades which will not be available until after Christmas.
To access Online Grades through he school web site:
- Click on Parents in the lefthand navigation bar or use the link in the Quick Links box on the home page
- Use the link at the bottom of the next page to access the Online Grades login page
- On the log-in page, the User ID will be the student’s last name, an underscore, and then the initials of his first and middle names (EX: William Edward Smith is smith_we). The Password is the first two letters of your son’s last name followed by the last four digits of his Social Security Number with no spaces. (Example: If William Edward Smith’s SSN is 123-45-6789, then his password would be sm6789).
If you experience any problems log-in in, please contact Assistant Principal Trip Norkus at 713.490.8139 or at
tnorkus@strakejesuit.org.
ONLINE COURSEWARE (Moodle)
Strake Jesuit uses a product called Moodle for their Online Courseware. This Online Courseware is used by faculty members to post homework assignments, administer online quizzes, host discussions board, provide students with links, and upload files.
This site is primarily for teachers and students. Parents who would like access must acquire their son’s login information from him.
A student’s login for Online Courseware is the same as his network login for school computers and their school e-mail account.
If a student has a password or User Name issue, these issues cannot be resolved via email. He must go to the library circulation desk, show your student id to the librarian and request their user id and password information.
If they change your password and forgot what you changed it to, they must request a password reset in person with your student id at the library circulation desk.
To access the Online Courseware site through the school web site:
- Click on Parents in the lefthand navigation bar or in the Quick Links box on the home page.
- in the upper righthand corner, click on Login

All returning students have active accounts and have used Family Connection with their counselor.
All incoming freshmen and transfer students will activate their accounts when they meet with your counselors.
Parents can request an activation code from their son’s counselor.
