Step 7: 

The Guest Access History shows when the account was created, the name of who was granted access, their telephone number and email address, the type of access granted, additional or removed access and a "What Changed" column.

** If ‘in person’ or ‘on the phone’ or ‘email’ communications have been authorized by the student as identified in the In Person column, the parent/guest will need to prove to the satisfaction of the office representative that they are who they purport to be. This may be accomplished by any and all means available including, but not limited to, questions verifying identity, photo id, telephone, email address, and security word phrase. **
