PCS Portal is the new student information system for Pinellas County Schools. PCS Portal allows parents to log in and check their child’s grades, attendance, discipline, etc. in real time. PCS Portal also has a list of programs specific to parents, such as the Student Reservation System (SRS), PCS Online Community Center, Parent Forms, and Meal Pay. These programs are listed on the main page of PCS Portal, so after you log in, you will see them on the lower right of the screen. Logging into PCS Portal gives the parents a “one-stop shopping” experience.
You already have a Parent Account if…
you have ever used ParentConnect to check your child’s grades or attendance.
you have ever used the Student Reservation System (SRS) to change your child’s address, reserve a seat for your child in a school, or applied for one of Pinellas County Schools’ countywide programs (Magnet\Fundamental).
you have ever logged into the Online Community Center.
Or you can call or visit any Pinellas County school and have them look up your information to confirm your Parent Account.
If you do not already have an account, all you need to do is go to any Pinellas County school with a valid ID (Driver’s License, State ID card, VISA (not the credit card), Military ID, Passport, Green Card) and tell the clerk you would like a Parent Account. The clerk will create your account and assign your children to that account.
No. Parents only need one account for all children in their household. When you log into PCS Portal, you will see a drop down in the upper right of the screen with the list of your children.
Yes. If you and your spouse or child’s other parent would like separate accounts, then they need to go to any Pinellas County school with a valid ID (Driver’s License, State ID card, VISA (not the credit card), Military ID, Passport, Green Card) and tell the clerk they also would like a Parent Account and your children will be assigned to that account.
Username = p.+ParentConnect Username (example: smithr becomes p.smithr). Password = ParentConnect Password (if your password is less than 6 characters add enough Z's at the end to make a 6 character password). The password must be all capital letters and\or numbers.
You can call or visit any Pinellas County school and have them look up your account information.
If you are not enrolled in SSRPM (Self Service Reset Password Management), you can call or visit any Pinellas County school and have them look up your Parent Account information.
If you are enrolled in SSRPM (Self Service Reset Password Management), you can click the link on the login page of PCS Portal to take you to SSRPM, click the button that says "Reset your Password" and answer the security questions that you setup when you enrolled and your password will be sent to you.
SSRPM (Self Service Reset Password Management) is a program that Pinellas County Schools uses to allow parents to reset their password if they have forgotten it. Whether you already have a Parent Account or you just had a Parent Account created, you should enroll in SSRPM. When you log into PCS Portal and you are not enrolled in SSRPM, you will be sent to the SSRPM website so that you can enroll. To enroll, all you need to do is set up a series of security questions and answers, similar to what you do when you bank online.
After six months from the start of school, any Parent Account that is not enrolled in SSRPM will be deleted. This is being done in an effort to eliminate unused accounts and duplicates.
Most likely your children are not assigned to your Parent Account. You need to go to any Pinellas County school with a valid ID (Driver’s License, State ID card, VISA (not the credit card), Military ID, Passport, Green Card) and tell the clerk that you need your children assigned to your Parent Account.
