which parents get access to online grades?

Hi -

I'm looking for some advice from schools who have web-based parent portals
where parents access grade reports instead of receiving them in print...

* Do you provide online logins to...
- - - Step-parents?
- - - Non-resident parents (the parent whose address is _not_ the primary
one the kids register with your school -- as in divorces/separations)?
- - - Spouses/significant others who live with non-resident parents?

* What do you do about providing logins to parents in sticky cases where,
for example...
- - - There's a non-resident parent who doesn't respond to the school's
annual "update" form; you may have an old email address but no indication
whether that parent is currently participating in the student's life?
- - - One parent says that the other does not have custody?

Thanks in advance,
Terry
