PowerSchool Public Portal

Elementary families can create a PowerSchool account to access school information such as bus info, health forms, and more. If you have an account already set up for a high school or middle school student, you can add your elementary student to the account.

Click here for the PowerSchool Public Portal link. The link can also be found at the AQ or District websites.

An access code and password are needed the first time you set up the account or to add an elementary student to an existing account.

Please contact Joanne Bongaarts, Aquila Library Media Specialist, at bongaarts.joanne@slpschools.org to get help with receiving your access code and password.
