Welcome to PowerSchool

Important Parent Portal Information:

It has been brought to our attention that Parent Portal Self-Reset emails are not being sent to parents attempting to log in to PowerSchool Parent Portal. We know how important it is for parents to be able to view student information. Please know that we are working on this with the PowerSchool support team. We ask that you please continue to be patient with our data managers and school staff as we work through this issue.

WHAT IS POWERSCHOOL?

PowerSchool is North Carolina's new student information system. Since PowerSchool is web-based, this information can easily and safely be shared with parents through the PowerSchool Parent portal.

With PowerSchool, parents will be able to access vital information about their children quickly and accurately. They can see the results of tests and assignments as soon as they are recorded, enabling them to intervene quickly and communicate with teachers and guidance counselors, if neccesary. Day in and day out, PowerSchool will help parents help their children achieve their potential. PowerSchool is a comprehensive student information system that will enable Johnston County Public Schools to easily manage a wealth of information online: grades, transcripts, report cards, assessments, and daily attendance.

ISSUES USING POWERSCHOOL

We recognize that PowerSchool has some challenges. However, we are working hard to minimize problems for students, parents, teachers, and administrators.

Should you experience problems logging in or in accessing information, please try again at a later time until the system responds. Because the system may be down or experiencing issues across the state, it may take repeated attempts to access PowerSchool Parent Portal.

If you are having issues with an invalid username and/or password, or if your email address has changed, please contact your school's Student Information Data Manager.

Thank you for your patience in this new process.
