PowerSchool (SIS)
Change is Coming!
On November 2, 2023, the North Carolina State Board of Education voted to award a new contract to Infinite Campus to modernize the North Carolina Student Information System (NCSIS). Learn more about the modernized system and its expanded offerings to better serve the students and educators of North Carolina at the NCSIS website.
PowerSchool is the official student information system used statewide by the public and charter schools of North Carolina for storing and managing student data. It maintains over 1.5 million student records and provides robust capabilities for educators and administrators to effectively manage school processes. PowerSchool reinforces personalized learning by offering the ability to tailor a student's instructional path with his or her interests, skills, and goals.
One of its many great features is the Parent Portal which gives parents and students access to student grades and assignments online. This information is also available through the Parent Portal App for those on the go!
