Registration

Instructions

To register a new student

Please contact your school directly to receive instructions on how to obtain, fill out, and return a registration packet for your student(s). This will allow the registrar to create your PowerSchool account.

You may then complete registration as instructed below.

To register a returning student

Student registration forms CANNOT be completed using a student account. Parents and guardians must login using their own PowerSchool account.

Login at powerschool.orcsd.org, then:

1. Click on the student's name (each student must be registered separately)
2. Click on Forms on the left column
3. Click on the Enrollment tab to see the list of forms for that student
4. Click on the form to open and complete it

Forms are listed in order and have a status icon beside them indicating “Not Started” or “Submitted”. Please check the information on your form before submitting it.

Required fields are indicated by a red asterisk.

After submitting, the next form in the series will open, or you can select the form to open by clicking the up arrow beside the submit button on the lower right.

If you have any questions about the registration process, please reach out to your child’s school office and they will assist you.

PowerSchool Information

If you need assistance with PowerSchool, please visit our PowerSchool page.

Please note: Our Information Technology team does NOT recommend using the PowerSchool application.

The application does not sync quickly with our server and may not show users the most recent information. In some instances, this can also cause significant delays when attempting to reset your password through the application.

Please log in using the PowerSchool Parent Portal online, especially if it's been less than 48 hours since you unsuccessfully attempted to change your password.
