New online tool to give parents access to children’s records

In an effort to make it as convenient as possible for parents to access their children’s grades, attendance records and more, the Department of Education has launched a new  mobile-friendly online tool, NYC Schools – available in 10 languages – for parents to view critical information about their children’s performance.

“Parents are our partners and we are constantly soliciting feedback to best serve students. We listened to families and to best enable them to engage in their child’s academic career, we have made it even easier for parents to track data about their child using the NYC Schools account,” said Schools Chancellor Carmen Fariña. “We are meeting parents where they are — and in 10 languages — to foster deep and meaningful involvement.”

The tool was up and running as of Wednesday, June 24.
