Infinite Campus for Parents

New Hanover County Schools uses Infinite Campus as our Student Information System. This updated platform gives families and students real-time access to grades, attendance, assignments, schedules, and more, all in one convenient place, with helpful tools to strengthen communication between home and school.

Use this page to find information and resources to help set up a parent account. With just one login, parents and guardians can access and manage information for multiple students quickly and easily.

Complete Your Annual Enrollment Updates

Select Start next to 2026-2027 Annual Updates, then select Begin to start completing the required information for your family.

Before proceeding, verify that all of your currently enrolled students are listed. If any student is missing, do not continue. Submit a help ticket and wait for a response from your child's school first.

If all students are listed, continue through each section. You will:

  • Review and update your Household Information.
  • Review and update Parent/Guardian and Emergency Contact Information.
  • Complete the required student-specific forms for each student in your household.

Once you have reviewed all information and completed every required section, submit your Annual Enrollment updates.

Need help? Reach out to your school's Data Manager to verify or update your contact info. You can also check out the helpful Parent and Student Portal Walkthrough video from the NC Department of Public Instruction.

If you have never created an Infinite Campus Parent Portal account, you will need to set one up before completing your student's Annual Enrollment Updates.

Self-Service Account Setup

If you did not receive an activation email, you can create your account using the Infinite Campus Self-Service Portal if you know your child's Student ID number.

  1. Visit the Self-Service Portal (opens in a new tab) and select New Hanover County Schools.
  2. Enter your child's Student ID Number, First Name, Last Name, and Date of Birth, then select Find Student.
  3. Select the parent or guardian creating the account, choose a verification method, and enter the code you receive.
  4. Follow the link provided, select New User, and enter the activation code.
  5. Create your username and password, and verify your email address.
You only need to complete this setup once. After your account is created, all of your children will be linked to the same Parent Portal account.

What if I'm missing students, or have students I don't know, in my account?

Missing a student? Submit a Help Ticket or contact your school's Data Manager for help adding the student to your account. Infinite Campus creates accounts based on physical address, so if your address was entered differently across students (for example, "11th Street" vs. "Eleventh Street"), a separate account may have been created. Your Data Manager can merge these accounts.

See a student who isn't yours? Submit a Help Ticket or contact your school's Data Manager. This can happen when multiple families share an address, such as an apartment complex. No confidential student data is exposed in either case.

I'm a parent and a New Hanover County Schools employee. Can I merge my staff and parent accounts?

Yes! Reach out to your school's Data Manager for help merging your staff and parent accounts, so you can access everything in one place.
