Parent Portal is the student information platform used by Portsmouth Public Schools to keep parents and families engaged in their child’s academic performance and progress. Beginning in 2024, all parents are required to have a Parent Portal account. This is where they will complete the 2024-25 School Check-In as well as see real-time grade information, attendance data and assignments.
How to Create A Parent Portal Account
