The Charms System

On Charms, you’ll find the master calendar of events, music & warm-ups to memorize, information and a place for parents to sign-up to volunteer. Sync the calendar with your family’s schedule!

Student and parents share a single Charms account, which just requires that the password be shared. Parent volunteer signups are not linked to a student account, so it does not matter if a parent signs up to volunteer via the public calendar or while in their student’s account.

Access Charms with an app on a smartphone (search for “Charms Blue – Student App” ) or go to https://www.charmsoffice.com on your computer.
You must log-in for the first time using a web browser (not the app) to establish your password. Then try the app, with the password you set.

NEW CHARMS ACCOUNTS

**NEW CHARMS ACCOUNT UPDATE** Because of the difficulties presented by the new Charms account creation and password reset processes, we have spent time developing and implementing a work-around method to create new Charms accounts without having the student’s personal email address and to allow students to log in for the first time without having to reply to the password reset link within 24 hours.
For students new to SLOHS Band, or if you have not yet logged into your Charms account, an account with a placeholder password has been created for you. View the Band 22-23 ParentSquare Post from September 5th for the password syntax, or have your student ask Band Board.
Log in using placeholder password using the directions below under To View Public Calendar or Log In.

Original New Charms Account Info:

  1.  New student accounts are created by parent volunteers using info submitted in the Band Member Info Forms. When the new student account is created, an initial email will be immediately emailed to the student’s email address. A sample of the email is shown below:
    The email will be sent to the personal student email address provided to us via the Band Member Info Form. If no student personal email was provided, or an slcusd.org student email was provided, the email will be sent to the parent email address provided in the Band Member Info Form. If the link is not clicked within 24 hours, please email slotigerband@gmail.com to request a Charms password reset. An email with a link to reset the password will then be sent to all emails associated with the account.
  2. When you click a valid link,it will take you to a page to create a password. Once a password is created, follow the steps below under To View Public Calendar or Log In to log in to the account. As noted above, student and their adults, whether in two households or not, use the same account and password to access this area. Parents sign their own name when volunteering (volunteer submissions are not associated with a specific student account).
