Annual Health Form
Each year, parents must update the health information for students. In the past, we have completed this process through a paper packet that was sent home with students. Beginning this year, and going forward, this process will be completed through the Parent PowerSchool portal at http://leicester.powerschool.com. You must use the web browser version of PowerSchool, and you must use a parent account. You cannot complete this process with a student account or a mobile app.
1. Go to: http://leicester.powerschool.com
2. Login with your parent account. If you do not have a parent account, please contact your child's school.
3. On the left-hand side, choose forms, and fill out the Annual Health Forms.
YOU ONLY NEED TO COMPLETE THE TWO HEALTH FORMS -- you do not need to fill out the LPS Registration Forms.
Student Drivers
Student parking will continue to be free again this year - but students must obtain a parking pass through the main office by October 1st.
