PowerSchool Portal


The PCTVS Parent & Student Portal gives parents and students access to real-time information including attendance, grades, detailed assignment descriptions, standardized test scores, and personal messages from teachers. Student official Progress Reports and Report Cards are placed on the Parent & Student Portal throughout the school year. Parents can also elect to receive automatic progress reports on all of their child’s classes on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.

When parents and students take advantage of this powerful tool, everyone stays connected: students stay on top of assignments, parents are able to participate more fully in their child’s progress, and teachers can use their gradebook to make decisions about information they feel is helpful to share with parents.

Click on the Parent & Student Portal link on the PCTVS website and take advantage of your ability to increase your level of communication, participation, and collaboration among you, your child, our teachers, and the entire PCTVS community.
