Having trouble logging in to your Schoology parent account?

Are you using the correct login page?
- The parent login page (https://app.schoology.com/login) is different than your student's Schoology login page
Are you using the correct username/email?
- The Schoology username/email for parent accounts is the email address you used when creating your PowerSchool parent portal account. If you change the email address associated to the PowerSchool parent portal account, the Schoology username/email does not change.
Are you using the correct password?
- The default password found in the PowerSchool parent portal for your Schoology account was used to establish your Schoology parent account. If you change the password once you log in to your Schoology parent account (this is recommended), then the default password found in the PowerSchool parent portal will not work. You can always use the Forgot your password link on the Schoology login page to reset your password.
Did you recently create your PowerSchool parent portal account?
- It can take 24-48 hours after you create your PowerSchool parent portal account for your Schoology parent account to become active.
