Open a child's full record from the portal home

A screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 9 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.

How to open a child's full record from the portal home

  1. 1Click Home in the portal's top bar
  2. 2Check the For you panel for anything waiting on you — a health review, an unpaid invoice, unread messages, an overdue library book
  3. 3Find your child's card — it leads with today's attendance sentence, then Grade, Grades, Classes, Due this week, and Books out
  4. 4Under the card, Health opens their health information and "Report an absence" tells the school they'll be out (when your school takes absence reports)
  5. 5Click the card (it says "View full details →")
  6. 6Check the top of the record for anything waiting on you — the re-enrollment question, the yearly health review, forms, and "Going to be out?"
  7. 7Scroll down to the summary tiles: Overall average, Classes, Attendance, and Books out, then read the amber "Needs attention" box
  8. 8Below them, see the Classes list with each class's teacher and current average
  9. 9Click Attendance to open the day-by-day history, then click "Back to overview" to return to the home page

Part of Family & student portals

One login per parent, covering every child: grades, attendance, this week's plans, library books, and invoices — and a student portal that answers "what do I owe and when."
