PARENT PORTAL AVAILABLE FOR PARENTS TO MONITOR THEIR CHILD(REN)'S GRADES
Parents,
Do you want to keep up with how your student is doing in school without having to rely on him/her to bring progress reports from each teacher? The Muscogee County School District has the tool for you to use so that you can stay on top of your child's school work and avoid failures. The tool is our Student Information System, called Infinite Campus. Infinte Campus has a Web-based Parent Portal so that you can see exactly how your child is doing in every class.
The Parent Portal is available for so that you will find instant access to accurate, current and confidential information about your child(ren)'s school attendance, grades, class assignments and more! If you have a computer with an Internet connection, you have the tool that you need. Just come to the Early College Office and tell Ms. Cloninger that you want to be able to see your child's grades. She will give you a page with instructions and your own login so that you can access the system from any computer. It is simple to set up and easy to use. To login to the Parent Portal, click here.
