    Viewing Scores

    If your student took a state exam an Individual Student Report (ISR) of your student’s score(s) is available in PowerSchool. To view electronic copies of the ISR in PowerSchool, log into PowerSchool through a web browser https://cabarrus.powerschool.com/public/home.html. Once on the website, click on State Test Reports in the left-hand menu bar. The ISR is not viewable on the PowerSchool app.
