The Parent and Student Portal is a secure and easy‑to‑use tool that helps you stay connected and involved in your child’s learning.

Parents and guardians can create their own accounts using each child’s unique Access ID and Access Password that will be sent to you via email.

If you have more than one child attending a DPCDSB school, you can link all your children to one parent account for easy access.

Please note: If your child is 18 years of age or older, their information will not be accessible through the Parent Portal.
