Powerschool

PowerSchool is an online parent portal accessible anywhere on the web that parents can log in to and see all of their children in one place, their grades, assignments, scores and attendance.

Please follow these steps to set up an account and access information:
IMPORTANT: IF YOU CREATED A PARENT ACCOUNT LAST YEAR, YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO ANY OF THESE STEPS. IF YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN YOUR USERNAME OR PASSWORD CONTACT THE SCHOOL OFFICE. 
1. If this is your first time creating a Power School account using a particular email address, access an Internet browser and navigate to https://www.fwsbpowerschool.org/public. Click on the tab that says “Create Account.” Enter the requested information including your desired username and password.
2. Scroll down to where it says “Link Students to Account.” Enter the access ID and password (below) for each child you wish to link to the parental account (including children from other FWSB schools).
Type your access ID and password exactly as they are printed below (case sensitive).
The “Relationship” field is your relation to the child–Father/Mother, etc.
REMINDER: THE ACCESS ID AND PASSWORD ARE NOT YOUR LOGIN CREDENTIALS. THEY ARE USED TO LINK YOUR CHILD TO YOUR POWER SCHOOL ACCOUNT DURING STEP 2 OF THE SETUP:
It will list your confidential information HERE
3. Click “Submit.” If you are successful you should be redirected back to the login screen. You can now use the username and password you created to access information for the children you linked to your account.
NOW YOU CAN ACTIVATE THE POWER SCHOOL MOBILE APP:
 1. Search for “Power School Mobile” by Pearson School Systems. Download, install, and open the app.
 2. Enter District Code: D – G – H – B. (You can also search under District: “Diocese Fort Wayne…”)
 3. Enter the username and password created under Step 1 (above) or using the student credentials given below.
HASA

Home and School Association (HASA)

The Home and School Association Board is a dedicated group of Holy Cross parents and guardians, parishioners and other members of the Holy Cross community. HASA is a great engagement tool that helps enrich students’ experience and promotes parental involvement. They provide help to the school, develop a positive relationship between home and school, raise money for the school and provide fun activities for the staff, students and families!

Last year, the HASA team gifted our school community $8,514! These funds have helped with school activities, functions and other needs that were identified throughout the year such as covering the cost of field trips, a much needed new copier and improving our school internet.

HASA board meets once a month to plan out the school year events and activities. Thanks to HASA, events and activities like Fun Fair, St. Nick’s Day, Teacher Appreciation, Open Houses, and Catholic Schools Week are possible.

New members and guests are always welcome!

If you would like to sign up to be part of the HASA team or help with any of the HASA sponsored events please email HASA@holycrosscrusaders.org or contact the school office at (574) 234-3422.
