Unique Email Addresses


Please make sure your CardinalConnect account has a current and unique email address on file. Accounts with duplicate email addresses will not receive invitations for the security update and eventually be disabled.


We understand that some families choose to use a single family email address for all school communications, and therefore have that address on multiple accounts. This will need to be corrected before you can receive the update invitation. Unfortunately, our software provider has made this mandatory.


If you need to change your email address, please click here to submit a ticket and our Technology Team will get back to you as quickly as possible. When submitting your ticket, please select User Accounts > Cardinal Connect > Update Contact Information.



Privacy Settings Requirements:

In CardinalConnect, users are allowed to fine-tune their privacy settings and choose what information they would like to share with fellow students, parents, faculty and staff at JPII. These settings are available for parents, faculty and staff as well. As such, there is a minimum that students are required to share with the faculty and staff roles in order for us to be able to communicate effectively.

To access your privacy settings get signed into CardinalConnect.

In the upper right corner, click on the button with your name and photo. On the drop down menu, click Settings. (See Fig. 1)

 In the Account Settings box on the left, choose Privacy. (See Fig. 2)

On the Privacy Settings pane, the bottom option must be checked. Once this is selected, you need to go through each dropdown above and select what each role is allowed to see.

What you share with students is completely up to you. 

Here is the minimum for what needs to be shared with the Teacher, Coach, Non-Teaching Staff, and Nurse roles:

If you have a cell phone, you may also want to add that number to your profile and share it with the Coach and Nurse roles for emergency communication purposes. You can update your personal information on the Profile option in Fig. 1.
