Create Parent/Guardian PowerSchool account

There are currently two main options for generating a KPBSD Parent/Guardian access account. The first is to use a Web ID and Password letter provided by school office staff. The second is to use the KPBSD forms portal registration process

Option 1

Use this method if your schools office staff has provided you with a Web ID and Password letter.

Step 1:

Browse to https://ps.kpbsd.org and click Create Account under Student and Parent Sign In and click the Create Account button

Step 2:

Fill out the enrollment form with your information (Name, Email, Desired Password etc.) For each student that you have a Web ID and password letter for, enter the Access ID and Access Password from the provided letter and press Enter

Option 2

Use the KPBSD Forms portal if you do not have a Web ID and Password letter and want to create your account and match your students by email and/or phone number

Step 1:

Browse to https://forms.kpbsd.org and click on Register New Account

Step 2:

Fill out the requested information (Name, Email, Desired Password etc.) and click Register

Step 3:

The system will now send a verification code to the provided email address. This is to verify that you are indeed the owner of the address used to match against the student contact information that we have on file. Once you have the verification code, return to the waiting registration screen.

Please be aware that if you are using a mobile device and switch to your email to get the code, you will want to use your task switcher to go back to the awaiting registration page. Do not simply open your browser as this will just open a new browser window. On iOS you can view your task switcher by dragging up from the bottom of your screen. On Android you can press the ||| button at the bottom left of of the home screen.

This process times out after 10 minutes. If, after 10 minutes, you still haven't received your verification code. You can start back at step 1.

Step 4:

Enter the verification code in the waiting registration screen and click the Register button

Step 5:

Once verified, you will be asked to proceed to Login. Login with the email and password you selected back in step 2.

Step 6:

Once logged in, you will be presented with a list of students that have matching contact information. If we have your email address on file for a Mother/Father/Guardian/Parent contact then they will be listed.

Step 7: (optional)

If one or more students are not listed that you feel you should have access to, then it is possible that we did not find a match on the email address you entered. You can now attempt to match based on your phone number by clicking the Add/Verify Student(s) button and entering your mobile phone information

If additional students can be matched and verified by phone then they will be added to your account

Step 8:

At this point, your PowerSchool Parent account has been created and you can login via the normal PowerSchool portal login page https://ps.kpbsd.org
