Accessing PowerSchool


To register for an account on PowerSchool, you need to fill out an Account Request Form. That may be done in person at your child's school, or online.

Registering Online

Connect to the Internet and type the following URL in your address bar:

https://powerschool.cps-k12.org

Once you are on the registration screen, follow the three simple steps below:

Activating Your Account

To activate your PowerSchool account, parents or guardians must come to the school office in person and show an official photo identification. This step is required to protect your child's information from being given to someone pretending to be you. Account activation must be done at the school even if you filled out your registration online.

Using Your Account

While at the school to activate your account you will receive a login, password and a set of instructions of how to log on and navigate through the PowerSchool web site. A User Guide also is available on the district web site in the Parent section. Schools may request a parent trainer who can come out to the school and give a demonstration of how to use the site.

Getting Help

Once you have activated your account, you are welcome to contact the district for support if you are having trouble using the system. Please feel free to contact us by:
