Everything You Need to Know

Introducing Your Parent Portal

All parents and guardians of students in the Chillicothe R-II School District have access to the grades, attendance and other important information regarding their children. The parent(s)' email address is always the username for the Parent Portal and a password will be randomly assigned to parents and guardians once their student is first enrolled. Parents and guardians of new students must complete the online registration forms found on their Parent Portal and submit the forms before new students can begin classes once the online registration window is open on August 2, 2021. Easy access to the Parent Portal login can be found at the following link:
