The Parent Portal provides you with 24/7 access to your child's academic information.  With a Parent Portal account, you may log on at any time to view your child's report cards and attendance.

If you haven't already done so, register for your account here.  The video resource below can help walk you through the process.

It is important that you log in to your Parent Portal account at the start of every school year to verify your contact information.  Building level and district level communications through the School Messenger program utilize this verified information to send emails, texts, and phone calls.  If your information has not been verified, you may miss out on important information!

LCSD student bussing information is now available online. 

Once there, you will need to login in with your student’s credentials:

• User Name is your student’s 9-digit ID number.
• Password is your student's date of birth (no spaces or dashes) with 2-digit month, 2-digit date, and 4-digit year.

Upon login:

• Click on the student’s name.
• The bus information will list the student’s bus number, bus stop location, and time of pick up and drop off (which is approximate).

Please note that students need to be at their bus stop 5 minutes before the scheduled pick-up time if the bus is running early. Please be patient, especially during the first week of school.

If you have any questions regarding your student’s bus information, contact the transportation office at (716) 686-3290.

The federal government has passed several laws in the past year to address the economic and health consequences of the coronavirus pandemic.

LCSD created a plan to utilize the allocation of federal funds to help our students and the school community address issues related to the ongoing pandemic that have affected all families and students. 

Details of the plan can be found here.
