Information for Parents

  • Parent PowerSchool Access

    To set up a Parent PowerSchool Account, parents will need their student’s parent access ID and password.  These are mailed home the first week of September.  Parents can link all their students to one Parent Account, using the parent access ID and password for each of their students.  For instructions, see the Parent Single Sign-On Instruction Sheet.

    If you lose, or didn’t receive, your Parent Account set-up instructions, contact the school.  For security reasons, we will not give out account information by phone, fax, or email.  Logins can be picked up in person or mailed to the home address we have on file.  PowerSchool logins are reset every summer to protect your privacy.

    With a Parent PowerSchool Account, parents will have access to a special Email Notifications page where they can sign up for automatic progress reports.  Because of this exclusive feature, it is highly recommended that parents keep their account ID and password confidential and not share it with their student.  Students get their own ID and password when they pick up their laptop.

    Student Laptops

    What if my child forgets to bring the district assigned laptop to school?

    If a student forgets his or her laptop, the tech office has a limited number of loaner laptops available. It is important that students remember to bring their district laptop to school each day with a fully charged battery. Students who repeatedly ask to borrow loaner laptops will be asked to explain their inability to bring their laptop to the building ETS and a school administrator.

    Student Laptop Chargers

    What if my child forgets to charge their computer or loses their charger? 

    The tech office has a limited number of loaner chargers available for students to check out for the day. It is important that students remember to bring their district laptop to school each day with a fully charged battery. Students who have lost or broken their charger can get information in the tech office about different options and specifications for replacing it.  It is expected that lost/broken chargers will be replaced with genuine Apple products.
