MyAccess@APS Login

MyAccess@APS for Students

MyAccess@APS (https://myaccess.apsva.us) is a “single sign-on system” through which users enter one user name and password to gain access to many different resources. It was introduced by APS in 2018, and is managed centrally by the Department of Information Services. It provides access to StudentVue*, the APS wireless network, your APS-provided Google Drive (the APS instance of Google Apps for Education, including Google Drive and Google Classroom), Microsoft 365 Account, Canvas and other tools. For more on the Digital Resources provided by APS and how to access them see APS Digital Resources.

Here is an example of what a student’s MyAccess login will look like:

Signing In to MyAccess@APS

Students must use their student’s credentials to access APS resources via MyAccess@APS. We cannot grant access to your personal account. So first please be sure to sign out of all personal accounts including Google, Microsoft, and any other non-APS Accounts.

To sign into MyAccess@APS, use your student ID and password. Do not use @apsva.us on this screen.
- This will provide you access to all your major APS Resources, including: Canvas, Discovery Education, Google@APS, MackinVia, Naviance, Office 365, and StudentVUE. For login information to other classroom or program-specific applications and resources please see your teacher or the Yorktown staff member who supports that program or resource.
To sign into specific sites or resources like Google or Microsoft you will need to use studentid@apsva.us. For example, if your student’s ID number is 0123456, use 0123456@apsva.us.

Digital Citizenship and Online Safety

Students at any grade level may access the “Be Internet Awesome” digital citizenship curriculum online. Please visit the Be Internet Awesome page to explore “Interland.” This all-age-appropriate curriculum can help prompt meaningful conversations with your students about how to utilize online resources responsibly.
All students, upon enrollment, are automatically granted a Google account through the APS Google Apps for Education program. Students may log into their Google accounts through any authorized Google portal or log-in using their OneLogin credentials, formatted like an email address:
- User Name: studentid@apsva.us
- Password: your APS MyAccess@APS password
  - For example, if your student ID number is 123456, your Google user name is 123456@apsva.us.

Graduating, Transferring, and Unenrolling Students

Students who leave APS for any reason will have their accounts automatically disabled. Prior to departing, students should use a service called Google Takeout to download any and all materials from their APS-issued Google accounts, which can then be uploaded into a new, private Google account that those students create independently.
