• Attendance Information: You may have received an attendance letter in the mail or via email recently and want to review your student's attendance history. When you login to PowerSchool you will see two weeks of attendance only. To access your student's full attendance history for the semester, click on the drop down menu in the left-hand corner and select "Attendance History." This will bring you to a page where you can view every day of the semester. If you are unclear about the meaning of any of the letter symbols you see, scroll to the very bottom of the page to view the legend.
