I keep a list (spreadsheet) of all user credentials. I keep a hard copy filed in the office. If someone forgets their password, they come to me, and I can print them off a copy of the login sheet they were given at the beginning of the year. I will generally change their password at this point, just in case. We change all staff and student passwords at the beginning of the school year (and any time we're concerned that it may have become compromised).

What is your procedure when a student forgets their logon password? Who handles this request? 2. Do you maintain a list of student passwords, and if so, who do you share that list with? 3. How often do you change student passwords? I am just curious what other districts are doing regarding this problem. It's not a big deal at this point in the game, but it seems to be an issue during the first few weeks of school and of course that is when we are bombarded by a million other things.
