PowerSchool Parent Portal

The PowerSchool Student and Parent Portal is a tool integrated into the PowerSchool Student Information System and specifically developed for parents and students. The PowerSchool Student and Parent portal gives parents, guardians, and students access to real-time information including attendance, grades, detailed assignment descriptions, and school bulletins.
