Ozark Tiger E-News

Parents, we know there are a lot of changes with this new PowerSchool Parent Portal. Thank you for being flexible and patient! We appreciate everyone who has taken the time to go ahead and create their Parent Portal!

If you have not yet created yours, you MUST do so in order to register your child for the school year. You should have received an email with instructions and your child’s access code. If not, please email powerschoolhelp@ozarktigers.org. Please be patient as we respond to emails in the order they were received.

Student Portals are not yet available.

Schedules and teacher assignments will be available today, Aug. 11, after 4 p.m. in your Parent Portal.

Visit www.ozarktigers.org/backtoschool for all your back-to-school questions! A few things included are:

• School Supplies
• Start & Release Times (no early release on Fridays)
• Before & After School Child Care
• Immunization Requirements

Offices across the District are closed Monday, Aug. 14, and Tuesday, Aug. 15, for districtwide meetings & trainings. We are gearing up for the school year and we are EXCITED!

We had a great time welcoming our new teachers Aug. 7 for their first day as Ozark Tigers for the kick off of New Teacher Week.

Thank you to the Ozark Chamber of Commerce and members for giving our teachers such a warm welcome! We're so excited for this school year!

Parents, bus stop locations and approximate pick-up times will be available in your PowerSchool Parent Portal under the Transportation heading beginning Tuesday, Aug. 15. Please note as we get through the first week of school, stop times may be adjusted based on students actually riding the bus. This information will remain updated in Parent Portal and any major changes will be communicated with parents.

If you see a bus in your neighborhood on the morning of Thursday, Aug. 17, don't worry, your child did not miss the first day of school! Our buses will run mock routes as a practice run for our drivers. Take note of the time the bus arrives at your stop.

It's about to get easier to fill out your free and reduced meal form! It will be ONLINE! Watch for details and the link coming soon.

In the meantime, if you have filled out your paper application, you can email it to leannsutterfield@ozarktigers.org or drop it off at any of our buildings, including District Office.

Find the application and more details here.
