Information for Parents
Parental involvement is critical to a child’s education. That’s why CMS has provided a user-friendly Web application to help parents and families become more involved in education. Parents will be able to remain involved with their student's progress through the PowerSchool Module called Parent Portal. This module for parents will allow for easy access of grades and attendance as well as the school bulletin and other items. Parents are able to check their child’s homework assignments, attendance reports and grades from any computer, any time.
