Infinite Campus Parent Portal
Vicksburg Community Schools is pleased to provide the Infinite Campus Parent Portal
communication tool for parents. The District understands that parental access to information is a
critical link in guiding and supporting students. The Parent Portal connects parents/guardians to
students’ data online, anytime, from any convenient location that has high speed internet access.
It is designed to help parents stay up-to-date with their children’s (and only their children’s)
assignments, activities and academic progress. Parents can view assignment details, email
teachers, track attendance, and print report cards and transcripts. Teachers, counselors and staff
publish information as it becomes available giving parents immediate access to ongoing student
performance. Schools post announcements, important notices, meetings and other “backpack”
type messages onto the portal, allowing busy families to schedule, plan and stay informed. The
Parent Portal is a free service to our district families.
The following links will provide you with the forms and instructions to sign up for and begin using the Parent Portal. These forms are also available in the Middle School office.
