How can WCS students log into District programs from home?

Westerville City Schools is working with Clever allowing students to log into their District provided programs at home.  Clever is a service that uses a student's Google account information as a portal to log into different technological tools that the district has provided to it's students. Clever provides student access at home to the following programs.
Please go to our Clever Update page for further explanations, directions and a printable handout with directions to send home to your parents.

Announcing Technology Solutions!

Westerville City Schools Technology Solutions

As part of the Learning and Teaching Roadmap, we have purchased both devices and digital content to support the district’s vision for educating students in a 21st Century Learning Environment. As the use of technology tools in our district has grown tremendously, so have the number of requests for repairs and assistance to the IT and the Ed Tech departments.  In order to provide staff with a user friendly and timely experience in having their technology needs addressed,


The IT and Ed Tech departments are pleased to announce
the “Technology Solutions” help desk!


The cornerstone of this initiative is a new ticketing system that will allow us to quickly receive, respond and resolve your technology requests, such as:


  • Hardware (Computer, Laptop, Chromebook)
  • Software

  • Phones/Voicemail
  • PowerSchool (including PowerTeacher and the Parent Portal)

So that we may efficiently and effectively address your technology issues,
it is extremely critical that ALL requests are submitted via our new ticketing system:
