Download our Parent Portal - Parent Guide
The PowerSchool Parent Portal allows parents to access all of their child's information in one place, including grades (for students in Grade 5 and up), report cards, and attendance.
Parents and guardians can also use the Parent Portal to access School Engage and School Messenger.
NLPS uses School Engage to handle all of our online registrations for preschool, K to 12, Transportation and Out of School Care, as well as our annual Student Update and Verification Form, which Alberta Education requires to have on file for every student annually.
School Messenger allows parents to see phone, email and text messages that have been sent to them by the division, their child(ren)'s school, and teachers, including absence notifications and emergency messages. It can also be used to report student absences.
If you do not already have a Parent Portal account set up, please contact your child's school and they will assist you.
