The Campus Parent Portal is designed specifically for parents and is optimized for use on mobile devices and tablets.
In the Campus Parent Portal, navigate between tools in the menu on the left. On mobile devices, this menu shrinks to a "hamburger" or "three bars" icon to save space.
Click the user icon in the top right to view Notification Settings. If a tool is specific to a single student, such as Grades or Schedule, a student dropdown list displays in the top right corner. This dropdown list does not display for tools that are not student specific like Announcements.
If a student has multiple enrollments, a dropdown list displays at the top of tools like Grades and Schedule listing each enrollment. Other tools, such as Behavior, show multiple enrollments on one screen, with data separated by enrollment.
