PowerSchool Parent Portal
Instructions for Accessing and Using the Parent/Student Portal
Powerschool Portal is now open on a pilot basis to a select group of Middle School teachers. If your student is in one of those classes you would have received a letter from your child's teacher.

Classes, teachers, attendance and grades are displayed for each quarter.
Note: you can click on any blue colored text or numbers.
- Click on a grade to see the assignments that resulted in that grade. Two dashes in an assignment score usually means the assignment can still be turned in. For example, --/20 means the assignment is worth a total of 20 points and has not yet been entered in the gradebook by the teacher.
- Click on an absence or tardy number to see the dates for those absences or tardies.
- Click on a teacher name to compose an email to that teacher.
