PowerSchool Mobile - Instant Access to Real-time Student Performance

Conveniently portable and powerful, the PowerSchool Mobile app provides parents and students with real-time information on grades, attendance, assignments, scores, and teacher comments. With a clean, easy-to-use interface and intuitive design, the app allows parents to monitor their child’s proficiency and register to receive alerts specific to their child.

PowerSchool Mobile app is available from the Apple App Store and Google Play markets.

To utilize these applications, parents must first obtain a Portal access ID and password/key from their child’s school registrar to setup their PowerSchool web-based portal account.

Parents and students with existing PowerSchool Portal accounts can use their existing credentials to the PowerSchool Mobile app.
