CHARMS
The Forney Band is now using the CHARMS system!!
This software system is used by many school organizations around the country. It will allow us to easily track student and parent information, communicate more easily with volunteers, provide timely information about events, manage forms, inventory, uniforms and music as well as provide student financial information.
We are thrilled and hope you will be as well! While many of CHARMS functions will be utilized by the directors and various committee chairpersons in the background, there is an entire section devoted to parents and students.
You can now update your student’s information, view the calendar of events, identify any forms that require completion and view your financial statements online under a secure password driven system.
Parents & Students: Maintain current information in CHARMS. Our communication with you via emails will be generated from the data in CHARMS. If you aren’t receiving it, odds are the information is not correct in CHARMS.
CHARMS Parent & Student Access – http://www.charmsoffice.com
CHARMS can be accessed using one of the links above or from the home page of our website under Useful Links or at the CHARMS Logo.
Your Student’s Password is their FISD Student ID number (in most cases).
If you have troubles with the number, please email Mr. Adler at christopher.adler@forneyisd.net with your student’s FISD ID Number and we will ensure it is updated quickly.
If, at any time, you need our SchoolCode, it is “Forneyhsband“.
Update Your Student’s Information – In CHARMS, you will see a Personal Info button. Please take a moment now to update as much information as you can which includes both Student and Adult information. This will save you and us time during the registration process. You will be asked for this information during Registration if it is not already updated in CHARMS. Please keep it updated as your data changes.
Update your Email Addresses!! You have three email address options in the Personal Info section – your student and two adult emails. This system will be replacing the existing Band email system. If you do not include emails in the new system you will not receive the email notifications you are currently receiving. Please ensure you enter email(s) that you or your student read often.
Take a Moment to Look Around! You can view the Band Calendar and Events, view your Student’s Financial purchases and Statements to date, make payments via PayPal for fees, and view and download Forms and other information under Handouts!
Let us know if you encounter any problems or issues at christopher.adler@forneyisd.net.
