Contacts in PowerSchool
Just a friendly reminder to make sure your child's emergency contacts are updated in PowerSchool. It's always a good idea to double-check this information periodically, especially if you've had any changes in your contact details, moved, or added new people to your child's emergency list. Keeping this information current helps the school contact you in a timely manner. Thank you!
