PowerSchool Quickstart Guide

How to use the mobile app

How to log in:

1. Go to the PowerSchool login page: orca.powerschool.com
2. Parents and Student can login by entering their PowerSchool username and password:
   1. A Student's PowerSchool username will be the first part of their ORCA email address (everything before the @student.oregoncharter.org).  Their password will be the same password used to log into their email/Chromebook with the first letter capitalized, and an exclamation point added to the end. For example, if your password is "bluefield39" your powerschool password would be "Bluefield39!"
   2. Parents and/or guardians will receive an email from ORCA with info on how to log in.  The email will include an Access ID and password used to create a PowerSchool account.  Parents will set a username and password to use moving forward when they create their account.
   3. If you are a parent, and did not receive your Access ID and password from ORCA, reach out to helpdesk@oregoncharter.org for assistance.
