Parent Access at St. Ursula School is available to parents in Grades 3-8. In July, 2009, the Archdiocese of Baltimore merged all schools into one PowerSchool server. This resulted in a change in user names and passwords for all students. To receive the new user and password for your student, please download and return to the attention of Mrs. Abrams. All parents must sign the new disclaimer in order to receive the new information.

To receive your child's ID and password, please do the following:

1. Print and sign the Disclaimer.
2. Send the Disclaimer to school Attention: Mrs. Abrams

After your signed Disclaimer is received, the password and ID will then be sent to you through your child. Be sure to check your child's folder.
