    About PowerSchool Parent Portal

    PowerSchool Parent Portal connects parents to their child's education.  Through the PowerSchool Parent Portal, parents have online access to student information such as grades, attendance, and assignments. Parents of returning students use the portal to update student information and sign forms electronically each year. 

    Families with multiple students can also set up their accounts to view all of their students at one time, all with one account to sign in.
