FACTS Family Directory Launch - Please Review Your Settings
We are excited to share that the FACTS Family Directory feature will be enabled in the Family Portal on Monday, August 25th. This directory allows Loyola families to connect with one another, and as a parent, you have control over what information you choose to share.
By default, all information is set to share, but you can adjust your settings at any time:
Log in to your FACTS Family Portal.
Click “Family Home” on the left-hand menu.
Click the pencil icon to edit your information.
Open the Custodial Parent Form.
Scroll to the bottom to find the radio buttons where you can select “Yes” or “No” to block your name, address, and phone number from the directory.
You will also see the option to have FACTS email you a Grade Detail Report daily, weekly, or never.
These directory selections must be completed for each parent on each custodial parent form.
Please review and update your settings by Friday, August 22nd so they are ready for the directory release on Monday, August 25th.
