Student Class Assignment


This year, you can access your class placements, report cards, and attendance all in one place called PowerSchool. If your student is new (including all kindergarten students) to the district, you will receive a print out letter with detailed instructions on how to access the website and convenient app at your Smarter Start meeting with your child’s teacher. Once you create your account, you will get a verification link in your email. Once you receive that email link, you will have 24 hours to finalize your account. After creating your online account, you will want to download the app separately (directions will be provided in the email). Finally, you will need a code to access IHPS in the App: PPJK. If you do not receive information about PowerSchool by August 21, 2026, please email Veronica Weaver at veronica.weaver@ihsd.us. If you already have a PowerSchool account, you will be able to log in with your existing login credentials.

 

Schedule your one-on-one appointment with your child’s teacher 



Once you know your child’s teacher, visit the Primary School Smarter Start Site to sign up for your child’s teacher meeting on 8/14 or 8/17. These one-on-one teacher/student/guardian meetings are so important for starting the year off together. Additionally, the meetings are in lieu of a whole-group back-to-school meeting in the evening. Information about the purpose and goals of the meeting can be found when visiting the site that is linked above.
