Parents and students access the Portal to check grades and attendance, view their calendars, find assignment details, and a variety of other tasks.  The Portal can be accessed by parents of enrolled students. Parents will see all children in their household, or students that are related through the Guardian checkbox of the Relationships tool.  

Parents are encouraged to access the portal for:

• Updating Family Member Information - Parents/guardians have the opportunity to review and request a change to the household phone number.  Parents may also review and request changes to Family Member data.

• Payment of School Fees - The Fees tab provides a list of all fees assigned to members of the family.  Fees only display for students where the portal user (typically, the student's guardian/parent) is assigned Portal access.

• School Choice Lottery Application  - Columbus City Schools has modernized the School Choice Lottery application process.  The paper-less process requires families to set-up their Parent Portal and create a School Choice application.
