Password reset info

Here's the email I received regarding resetting your password:



Student Accounts: PASSWORD RESET
As of August 16 PPS has reset all student passwords, so each student will need to create a new passwordWe would greatly appreciate the help of our parent community for this task by having your student do this before school starts!
After August 16, please have your student follow these instructions:
Student usernames remain the same: first initial of first name + last name + last 4 digits of student ID.
Example: jdoe3456
The reset password will follow this setup: Pps###### (#=full student ID#)
Please use https://password.pps.net to set up the question/answer profile so your student can perform self-service password resets. This can be done at home or on any mobile device. Besides being a great lesson in digital literacy for them, it eliminates the need for teachers and staff to reset student passwords.  
The new password must fit this complexity policy:
Passwords must be a minimum of 8 characters and have at least three of the following:
  • English uppercase characters (A through Z)
  • English lowercase characters (a through z)
  • Base 10 digits (0 through 9)
  • Non-alphabetic characters (for example, !, $, #, %)
  • No portion of their username may be used as their password
To login to any school computer:
Username: jdoe3456
Password: New Password
To login to a school Google account or Chromebook:
Username: jdoe3456@apps4pps.net
Password: New Password
(NOTE: Students should NOT use their personal Google accounts for school work. They should use the one provided by the district. This is a requirement to use some features such as Google Classroom.)
*Students will be able to access the StudentVUE mobile app again starting August 22, and will need to use their new passwords.
*Students registered after August 12 and who do not have an apps4pps.net account, or those who are not able to complete this passwordchange may contact Luke Wisher by email at lwisher@pps.net or in room 120 or the got to the Library after school starts.
