PowerSchool Contacts 
Student Contacts is one of the most highly anticipated PowerSchool features ever. It transforms the way people are associated with students, supporting interconnected relationships and modern family structures. Contacts are now their own entity in PowerSchool, with their own data that can be shared with multiple students in a way that is relational and dynamic.

Student Contacts includes a backward compatibility layer to allow your district to continue using PowerSchool in the ways you are already familiar. You can get started using the Student Contacts right away by contacting Glen.weinmann@k12.nd.us to set up a training via Microsoft Teams.
