Hi @ctatman,

Please make sure that you are using the correct access ID and Password for your student while adding them to your Parent Portal account and selecting the correct option from the relationship to student drop-down.

If you continue to face difficulty while creating your Parent Portal account, we recommend reaching out to the school or district.  Only the school or district has access to Parent Portal related information.

Thank you Bishal. I have requested further assistance from my school. However, I am using the AccessID and Password that they supplied.

Just curious, does PowerSchool access require MS Windows+IE in order to work correctly? I have an Android Phone, Linux, and Chromebooks in the house - no Windows platforms. If Windows is required, then that might be a problem for me.

Thanks!

Hi! @ctatman 

This is a great question!

You should be able to access PowerSchool Parent Portal on a Non-Windows platform.  The forms are optimized for all mobile devices and the best user experience may be had from a laptop or desktop computer.
