Online enrollment for the upcoming school year is now available! 

This section is for updating student's information that are currently enrolled in Defiance City Schools. This electronic form replaces the paper emergency medical form which is required to be updated yearly by all parents with students enrolled in Defiance City Schools. 

PARENTS: This is required every school year for all of your children attending Defiance City Schools. It is IMPERATIVE to complete this online process in order to update addresses, phone numbers, health concerns, emergency contact information, transportation requests, etc.  Students are not permitted to attend school events such as school dances or field trips until the Returning Student Registration Update has been completed. 

Please note that in order to update records for CURRENT students you must log into your PowerSchool Parent Portal account. If you currently have a Parent Portal account and are ready to begin updating your students' records please click: Returning Student Emergency Medical and Contact Information Update. 

If you do not know your username or password to log into your Parent Portal click on the forgot username or password option or contact the secretary at the building in which your child attends for assistance.

Access ID is your child’s student ID or lunch number

Access Password is your child’s birth date m/d/yy Example: 5/22/97

I can’t remember my login for the PowerSchool Parent Portal.

If you aren’t able to retrieve your login credentials using the “Forgot Username or Password” link on the Sign In page, please contact your school directly for assistance logging into the Parent Portal. 

Do I have to answer all of the questions?

Required questions are marked as “Required.”

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 the required questions.

What if I need to make changes after I have submitted?

You will need to contact the office of the building your student is attending to make updates.

What if I have more than one student at Defiance City Schools?

You need to do this for each child.  We recommend that you complete one student and then start another-this will allow you to import shared family information, which will save you time.
