Logging on to PowerSchool Parent/Student Portal:
The PowerSchool Parent/Student Portal is web-based and can be accessed from any computer with internet access. Compatible web browsers include Internet Explorer 8, Firefox, Safari, and Chrome. The PowerSchool Parent/Student Portal can be found at the following secured web address:

Security:
The PowerSchool Parent Portal requires a unique username and password to access student information. Students will also have access to the Parent/Student portal. Each student will be assigned his/her own username and password.
Grades:
A parent/guardian or student can also view the cumulative grade for each course in which the student is currently enrolled. This view provides a summary detailing exactly where a student stands in each course area for the current semester. These are live grades as they exist in the teacher’s grade book. The grade in blue is a clickable link that, when clicked, will display the individual assignments that contribute to this grade. The teacher’s name, also in blue, is a clickable link to the teacher’s email.
