Welcome Emails:

Welcome emails are sent to the email address associated with PowerSchool.
All Admins and Proctors will receive a welcome email. 
Student usernames are a combination of first and last name.
Passwords are the PowerSchool five digit identifier.  All users are expected to change their password upon initial log in. 
The email will come from the address religionassessments@sadlierconnect.com and will contain:

  • The school's custom website address. 
    • Students use the same website address as the teacher or admin. You may want to bookmark the address and post where students can click the link to access the login screen. Google Classroom or your class website are two good options. In the Manage Classes screen, you will find a "Print Student Letters" option that creates a PDF file with each child's login details.
  • Your username 
  • Your password

Microsoft Outlook
Microsoft Outlook calls the spam folder junk, and it is usually found listed on the left below other folders. Search for an email from religionassessments@sadlierconnect.com and open it. At the top of the email, find the message stating, "This message was identified as junk..." and click on the "It's not junk" link.

Google

Google Gmail uses the term spam for labeling the spam folder. Find the folder in the list on the left and click on it. If you do not see the spam folder but you see a link labeled more, click on it to expand the list. Search for an email from  religionassessments@sadlierconnect.com.  If you find an email from Sadlier Connect™, open the message and click the button labeled "Report not spam."
