Parent Teacher Conference Sign Up Available Online NOW...

MP-East Parents:  We are excited to offer an electronic way to sign up for Parent-Teacher Conferences for your child(ren).  Parent-Teacher Conferences will be held on 

Tuesday, November 7th

OR

Thursday, November 9th 

from 4:00-8:00 PM on both nights.  Each child's conference is 15 minutes in length and will be held with your child's teacher.

You may sign up for a conference time slot (one time slot per child) using a computer or any electronic device in which you can access PowerSchool.  CLICK HERE to access the Mid-Prairie Parent PowerSchool Portal to sign up for a conference time.

Below, you will find a series of screenshots to assist you in signing up for a conference using my own daughter's name, E.

Once you select the CLICK HERE link above, you will be taken to the sign in portion of the PowerSchool Parent Portal:

Once you provide your Username and Password, you will be able to access your child's information on PowerSchool.  If you forget either your Username or Password--click on "Forgot Username or Password? and it will take you to a screen to recover that information.

After logging in to the Parent Portal of PowerSchool, look at the left-hand side menu bar of the screen and scroll down towards the bottom and look for this visual:

Click on that link.

Using the dropdown menu on the "Select a Teacher" button with arrows, select your child's classroom teacher.  When you Select a Teacher, then it will bring up the teacher's available time slots for that evening's Parent-Teacher Conferences.  It will look like this, using Mrs.

, as an example:

All of the time slots are 15 minutes in length, and allow you to enter your main email address that you provided to PowerSchool when you registered your child for school this summer.  It gives you an example email:  "example@gmail.com".  Once you select a time slot and enter your email address in that box and CLICK SAVE, your child's name will appear in that box.  You may need to double-check your parent email that is entered into PowerSchool to make sure you use the same email.

You can then go back to the Parent-Teacher Menu to see if you have a "reservation," found in "My Reservations" which will then look like this:

*NOTE:  If you have children in different elementary schools, you will receive an email from both schools asking you to reserve your own time that works best for you and your family for Parent-Teacher Conferences.

Since this is a new process for signing up for Parent-Teacher Conferences, there may be a learning curve--but we are hopeful you'll find this method to your liking.  IF you have any questions or need help, please call your school secretary to ask questions or seek support.  You are also welcome to come into the school to set up a time with support from school personnel.

Thank you!
