SPS Data Verification Forms Available Online
The Seattle Public Schools online student data verification is now available. This is used to verify your student’s demographic information, emergency contact information, and other data. Previously, this was a paper form completed at the start of every school year. Now, you will use The Source to access this form.
The 2021-22 student data verification form will be available from Sept. 1 – 30. Parents and guardians use this form to update emergency contact and medical information for their student.
New to The Source? The Source provides access to student record information such as attendance, assessment scores, library information and now the student data verification form!
To set up an account, parents and guardians use the email address that is currently on record at their student’s school. Read more about The Source including how to set up your account.
NOTE: Only one form can be submitted per student. If your student has more than one legal guardian on record with the district, the guardian who starts filling out the data verification form first will be the only one able to submit a form. The other guardian may receive an error message saying that the verification process has already been started.

Do I have to answer all the questions?
Questions marked with “required” need to be answered.
What if I make a mistake?
If you would like to make a change prior to submitting the form, you can either navigate back to the page using the “Prev” and “Next” buttons or if you are on the Review page click on the underlined field. If you have already submitted the form you will need to contact your student’s school so they can make the changes for you.
I’ve completed the form, now what?
Once you have finished entering your information click “Submit.” If you cannot click on this button you will need to make sure that you have answered all required questions.
What if I have more than one student in the district? Do I need to do this for each child?
Yes, you will need to fill out a form for each child. We recommend that you complete and submit one form and then start another. This will allow you to “snap” (or copy over) selected family information, which saves you time.
Help! I’m on the form and I’m having technical difficulties.
For technical support, please use the Enrollment Family Support chat or call 866-752-6850.
