Every site has been given an Admin access login for iReady.  This login and password should be used for anyone that you feel should have access to the entire site’s data.  The accounts are tied to the principal’s email account, and if a reset is triggered for the password and email will go to the principal.  This should help us manage the password and site access more easily.  

Your site credentials look like this:
