PowerSchool 6.2 Update:

On September 8th, 2010, Powerschool will be updating its parent log-in procedures.  On this date, current Junior High usernames and passwords will no longer be active.  Mrs. Arnold will be updating this as soon as the information is available.

With PowerSchool 6.2 you now have a new feature for parents: One login for all their 6-8 students. The single parent login feature allows parents to login once and view information for all of their students. It is a great feature for those with more than one child in Junior High. Additionally, parents may create the UserName and Password of their choice. Divorced parents may now each have their own User ID and password.
