STEP 1: Log in to your PowerSchool parent account:  https://decorah.powerschool.com

• If you do not remember your credentials, you will need to select forgot username/password to have your credentials emailed to you. If you cannot access the recovery email, you will need to contact the school administrative assistant. 
• All parents/guardians will use the PowerSchool parent website to submit registration forms.

STEP 2: Once you are logged in to your PowerSchool parent account, follow the steps below.

• Select the student you wish to review and update.
• Select the Returning Student Registration (Upcoming Year) Icon/Link located in your parent PowerSchool account on the left side menu. (similar to the image below.)

• Agree to the terms and conditions.
• Click Begin Forms to begin verifying and updating information.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete online registration (for each of your students).
    • This process involves updating contact and medical information as well as electronically signing your understanding of required forms. 
• Once you select SUBMIT, you cannot access the form again.

STEP 3: Pay registration fees.
