Every school year, parents MUST update each child's Emergency Medical and Transportation Information prior to the start of the school year. In order to complete the electronic Emergency Medical and Transportation form you must log into your PowerSchool Parent Portal using the following browser link: https://defiance.ps.nwoca.org/public
Please be aware, you can not use the PowerSchool app to make these changes.
PARENTS: This is required every school year for all of your children attending Defiance City Schools. It is IMPERATIVE to complete this online process in order to update addresses, phone numbers, health concerns, emergency contact information and transportation requests, etc. Students are not permitted to attend school events such as school dances or field trips until the Emergency Medical and Transportation Form has been completed.
How do I get started?

Select the student you wish to register along the top
Select the Emergency Medical and Transportation Form Icon on the bottom left side
What if I do not have a Parent Portal account?

Fill in the information requested, including your own unique username and password. For each of your children, you will also fill out the information requested (Student Name, Access ID, Access Password)

What if I have more than one student at Defiance City Schools?
