End of year information for parents

Parents,

The PowerSchool system will be closed to all users on June 23rd. Thank you for taking advantage of this additional tool to help you work with your child for his/her academic success. Although the system will be open later in the summer for the schools to process enrollments and assign classes, the parent portion will not be available until the first several days of school in September. There will be nothing for you to view once we close the system down for this school year. Unless you receive a notice home, your user name and password will not change at the beginning of the school year.

Have a wonderful summer and feel free to contact me if you have any concerns,
Sincerely,
Adele Ellis
Assistant Superintendent of Technology

Reminder for when you receive the email notifications

Parents,

When you receive your email notifications, the emails are being generated by the PowerSchool server, not the teacher. If you wish to discuss any information regarding grades or attendance issues, you will need to open your email function and write an email to the teacher. The teacher's email addresses are not included in the email notification. The best way to have the teacher's email address from PowerSchool is to go into your child's PowerSchool account and click on the teacher's name in blue under the class name. For best results, have your email program open for the email to be generated directly from your email system.

PowerSchool is now available again on Monday, March 31st

Parents,

We have completed the changes required for the upgrade of the system and have been available to the community since 10:20 am today.

Again, I apologize for the inconvenience.

End of Marking Period 3

Parents,

The end of the marking period for most of the schools is Friday, April 4th. It will be several days before you receive the report card and teachers will need to make any necessary adjustments to the quarter grade. Please remember that the grade averages you have been viewing all marking period only address graded papers. There are other factors, as explained to you by the individual teachers, that may affect the final marking period average. If you have any questions regarding the final grade, please contact the teacher.

Upgrade Planned during the Easter Break

We will be working on upgrading the servers during Easter Break, from Thursday, March 20th to Friday, March 28th. Any interruptions in service will be minimal. If the system is not functioning at the time you log on, try again in an hour or two.

We continue to upgrade to provide the best service to our families. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
