+The Parent Web Connect access provides the same functionality as the mobile application except for the ability to dismiss students and receiving real time alerts of student activities.
 ====== Accessing the Site ======
 The specific web address for accessing the information for your school may be obtained from your school staff. Silent Dismissal does not provide this information to parents directly. Once you know the web address for our school, any modern browser, including those on mobile devices, should work.

-==== School Information ====
+===== School Information =====
 This block contains information that you cannot change. It is information provided by the school such as the school name and address, along with the primary contact for supporting Silent Dismissal.
-==== Account Profile ====
+===== Account Profile =====
 {{:parents:parent_account_profile.jpg?300 |}}This is you information. It shows your e-mail address and your name that you entered when you created your account.
 You may click on the pencil icon to edit your account information, including changing your password. This is the first of three functions that you may perform.
-==== Students ====
+===== Students =====
 {{:parents:parent_add_student.jpg?300 |}}The //Students// section lists all of the students associated to your account. By default, when you first create an account there will only be a single student listed.

 {{:parents:parent_student_profile.jpg?300 |}} The third function that you may perform is to set the profile for each student associated to your account. The icon in the right column of each student row is a link to the //Student Profile//. If one or more fields may be changed by parents, this icon will appear as a blue pencil; if no fields are editable by a parent, then this icon will appear as an orange //access denied// icon.
-The //Student Profile// pop up is divided into four sections. The first section displays general student information including: name, classroom (A only for A/B schedule schools), grade level, and carpool ID.

 Any field marked in gray and showing a //do not enter// cursor when hovered over may not be changed by parents. This may be because school policy does not allow parent to change those values, or in the case of specific days the current time may be too close to dismissal to allow parents to change the value for the current day.
+If a student is no longer someone for whom you need to make changes, set the //Remove Student Association// check box, then scroll to the bottom of the page and click //Save//. The student association to your account will be removed and no other changes for the student profile will be recorded.

   - **All other groups** Selecting any specific group will override any existing group settings for the day. If a student is normally assigned to a bus group for the day but an explicit setting is made to set the student for the after care group, then the student will only see his or her name when the after care group is called. The student will appear on the check in roster for after care but will not appear on the check in roster for the bus.
-==== Messages ====
+===== Messages =====
 The messages section will show all messages posted in the school on the current day that apply to the primary classroom to which the listed students are members, that apply to any group associated to any student for the current day, and that apply to the entire school.
-===== Data Logging =====
+====== Data Logging ======
 {{:parents:parent_student_explict_settings_made.jpg?300 |}}All transactions performed on a student record are date and time stamped and associated to the specific account which made the change, whether that is a parent account or an account for a school staff member.
