POWER SCHOOL - PARENT ACCESS - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Every parent/guardian should monitor his/her child's grades at least once a week. Parents can have direct access to each teacher's gradebook. Grades will begin posting after the 10th day of school and will be updated at least once per week. Student report cards will be viewable online at the end of each quarter via Power School Parent Access.
If you had access last year at any SCCPSS school, your login information and access code remain the same. If you have never had access before, please use this link for accessing the Request for a PowerSchool Parent Access account: https://www.sccpss.com/district/data-and-accountability/sis
Students should have access so they may monitor their own grades as well.
