  • Housing Questionnaire
  • Special Education Recovery Services Form (for students with IEPs only)

Grades

Did you know that you can track your child’s education on any computer, phone, or tablet? In the MyStudent section of your NYC Schools Account, you can track your student’s grades, schedule, test scores, transportation, attendance, and more! If your student has an Individualized Education Program (IEP), you can view their student’s recommended services. You must be linked to a student in order to view this information.
