HKIS ID Cards

Download as PDF

All HKIS employees, students, and parents to the school are required to use an HKIS ID card at the main entrance to gain access to the Repulse Bay and Tai Tam campuses, when boarding buses, and to borrow books from the libraries. An HKIS ID card is your evidence of being an HKIS community member. You should carry or display your card at all times when on HKIS property and present it at the entrance to school and upon the request of an HKIS employee (High School Students: Especially when using “Come Late Privileges,” “Senior Privileges,” and school events in the evenings or on weekends).

NOTE: If you forget your HKIS ID card, you will be required to sign in as a visitor.

HKIS ID Cards for New Families

  • All HKIS students are issued with ID cards once accepted into HKIS.
  • It is recommended that all new parents submit an application for a HKIS Parent ID. The HKIS Parent ID card means you do not need to register as a visitor each time you enter campus.
  • Log in to PowerSchool and complete the “HKIS ID Card Application/Replacement/ Renewal” form to apply for a card.
  • New families may request HKIS ID cards for themselves or guardians by submitting the card application form through PowerSchool.
  • Divisional offices will distribute new student and parent HKIS ID cards in August, usually during the New Family Orientation or Back to School Night, prior to the start of school.

Returning Students

  • To ensure a student’s ID photo is up-to-date, returning HKIS Student ID cards are re- issued when a student enters into a new division (Reception 1, Grade 3, Grade 6 and Grade 9).
  • Divisional offices distribute the HKIS ID cards to R1, G3, G6 and G9 students in August.
  • If a student loses their HKIS ID Card, a replacement card will be issued at the cost of $100.

Returning Parents

  • All HKIS parents are required to have an HKIS ID card to access campus, both during school hours and for events that take place after school or on weekends.
  • If you have a card already, it will remain active as long as your children are enrolled in the school, so please hold onto it and use it when accessing campus.

Replacement Cards

  • To replace lost, stolen, or damaged cards, please log in to PowerSchool and complete the “HKIS ID Card Application/Replacement/Renewal” Form.
  • There is a $100 charge for replacement cards, so please keep your cards in a safe place.

HKIS-Sponsored Cards

  • You may also apply to have an HKIS ID card issued for other family or household members, such as grandparents or helpers.
  • These cards are considered “sponsored cards” and there is a fee for issuance plus an annual renewal fee.
  • Sponsored cards can only be used to enter and leave school premises, they cannot be used to borrow library books or board buses.

Using your HKIS Card at Divisional Libraries

Each student’s card is printed with a library membership number. Library membership is available to students, parents, and employees.
