    1.  Sign in to Parent/Student PowerSchool on a computer.  https://powerschool.ccsdut.org/   (You cannot make these changes on a mobile device.)

     

    2. You will see tabs at the top with your child(ren)'s name(s).  Choose the child at the top for which you would like to update the contact information:

    8.  Click the box next to all of the categories for which you would like to be contacted.  (We STRONGLY suggest you check them all because often times snow closures will come through General Information.)  Once you have made your changes, click the green "Save" button.  All changes made have now been saved and will be used with the next set of communications from your school/district.
