PowerSchool (PS) Parent Portal
The PowerSchool (PS) Parent Portal will allow parents to access up-to-date information about
your child’s grades and attendance. Parents will be able to simply click on your child’s grade in a
class and see the complete list of assignments and grades and be able to e-mail your child’s
teachers by simply clicking on their name within the grade book.
In order to enter the Parent Portal, you will need access to a computer with internet and a
working e-mail account, to which you alone have access.
