Returning Student Information Update

Returning Student Information Update will be open in the parent portal May 1-31 and will reopen July 25, 2023 for families to update information for the 23-24 school year.

Currently enrolled Hamilton County School students are required to update information each year.

Parents/Guardians can easily update student information using the Returning Student Update 23-24 link found in their PowerSchool Parent Portal.

From the PowerSchool Parent Portal:

  1. Select the student you wish to update registration information along the top. (Students currently linked to your Parent Portal are located in tabs at the top of the screen.)

  2. Select the Student Registration Icon on the left side for 2023-2024.

  3. Agree to the terms and conditions

  4. Click Begin Forms 


I’ve completed the form, now what?

When you have finished entering your information, click “Submit.” This will send all of the information you’ve entered to the school. If you cannot click on this button, you will need to make sure that you have answered all required questions. Please be sure to review the summary page of the student registration submission where you will find valuable additional information and links regarding HCS programs. 


What if I have more than one student in Hamilton County Schools?

 Do I need to do this for each child? Yes, you will need to provide information that is specific for each child. After submitting the first registration, you will exit out of the current tab and select the next student in your parent portal. Students are listed in tabs located at the top of the screen in your parent portal. You will proceed to update the registration information just as you submitted the first student's updated information. Repeat this action for any additional students linked in your parent portal account.  If you are the legal parent or guardian of a returning HCS student and need them linked into your current parent portal account, please contact your student's current enrolling school for assistance.

For general registration questions, you may email [email protected].

Please keep in mind that completing the Registration Update performs best using a desktop or laptop with Google Chrome as the browser of choice. If you experience an issue submitting from a Chromebook or a mobile device, ensure that you save and log out in the upper right hand corner of the screen and then log in to a different device and submit.
