Parents and Guardians: At the start of each school year, it's essential that you complete the Student Registration Verification process for each of your children enrolled in ACPS. This crucial step ensures we have the most accurate and up-to-date information for your child. The process takes just a few minutes, and you can easily complete it through the PowerSchool Parent Portal.
Note: If you don’t have a Parent Portal account, please contact your child’s school for assistance.
Why is this important?
Stay Connected: Ensure we have the correct contact details to reach you in an emergency, keep you updated on your child’s progress, and share school news via BrightArrow’s voice, email, and text alerts and real-time, two-way communication through Remind.
Complete Required Agreements: Confirm or update any necessary permissions and agreements.
Smooth Start: Avoid any last-minute issues by verifying your information before the deadline.
Who should complete the process?
Parents and guardians of currently enrolled students should complete the Registration Verification process. If your child is a new student this year and you’ve recently completed an online registration form, you don’t need to complete the Registration Verification unless your information has changed since you submitted the registration form.
When is the deadline?
The 2025-26 Student Registration Verification form opened on August 7, 2025. The deadline for completion is September 26, 2025.
How do I access the Registration Verification form?
Select Your Student: Choose the student you wish to update from the top menu.
Start Verification: Click on “Student Registration Verification” (“Verificación de registro de estudiantes,” en español) from the sidebar:
Or, click on the “Applications” icon and select “Student Registration Verification”:
Access the Form: Enter your student’s date of birth to verify your identity and access the form.
Review and Submit: Review the information, make any necessary changes, and submit.
Important: You can only complete the form from the account that first accessed it.
If you have never set up a PowerSchool Parent Portal account, please contact your student’s school for the information that you will need to set up an account. In addition to access to registration verification, the Parent Portal will allow you to see important information about your child throughout the school year.
If you have forgotten your PowerSchool Parent Portal username or password, click the “Forgot Username or Password?” link on the Sign In page to retrieve them. If you aren’t able to retrieve your login credentials using this link on the Sign In page, please contact your child's school directly for assistance.
If you are entering your child's birthdate in the correct format (MM/DD/YYYY) and it is not being accepted, we may have the wrong birthdate in our system. Please contact your child's school to confirm the birthdate we have on file and, if necessary, have the birthdate updated.
If you would like to make a change, prior to submitting the form, you can either navigate back to the page using the “< Prev” and “Next >” buttons. Or if you are on the Review page, click on the underlined field. If you have already submitted the form, then you will need to contact your student’s school, so they can make the changes for you.
Once you have finished entering your information, click “Submit.” This will send all of the information you’ve entered to the school. If you cannot click on this button, you will need to make sure that you have answered all required questions.
Yes, because you’ll need to provide information that is specific for each child. Not updating all students with changes will leave schools with incomplete information. Return to your PowerSchool Parent Portal to complete a registration verification form for additional children.
If you are experiencing technical difficulty navigating this form, please try a different web browser. PowerSchool Enrollment forms work best on Google Chrome, but other currently supported browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Safari can also be used.
For technical assistance with the online registration tool and issues with your PowerSchool Enrollment account, parents should visit the PowerSchool Enrollment Family Support website anytime for Knowledge Base articles, community forum, and PowerSchool Assistant chat, which can connect you with a live support engineer.
