Student Emergency Cards

Please click read more for information on how to complete the electronic student emergency cards.

The PowerSchool parent portal allows you to view your student's schedule, grades, attendance, lunch balance and so much more.  It is a valuable tool in provide accurate and timely information both to you as a parent and to the school district.  It even allows you to set up notifications for missing assignments, low lunch balances and many other things.

 The school district recommends accessing PowerSchool through the school website on a personal computer or a tablet due to screen size.  The Powerschool App that is available on Android and PlayStore does not function well with our PowerSchool system. 

Please click on the powerschool icon on the school website (www.crlions.org).  Then enter your parent account information (this is not the Access ID# that was sent in the mailer).  If you forget your username or password, try the forgot username and password recovery tool on the site, which is directly below the username and password boxes. 

For parents/guardians that have not created an account yet, please follow the instruction on this document (New User Account).  You will need your student's Access ID # and access password from the mailer.  If you are unable to find that information, please call the school district at (814) 839-4195 and speak to a building secretary. 

Once you have entered the Powerschool Parent Portal, there are tabs across the top with your student's  name(s) on it.  Please select one of them and then on the left side of the screen you will see forms (roughly halfway down the screen).  After clicking on forms please review, correct if necessary, and submit the contact information update form and then fill out the health information update.  You are able to save the information before submitting, but please remember to the submit button once the form is completed.

If you need further assistance, please call (814) 839-4195 ext. 3380 or email jsmith@crlions.org. 

Thank you for your cooperation.
