Parent Portal Account Part of the role of being a parent coordinator is ensuring that parents have the tools needed to be partners in their child’s education. The parent portal is a great example of a tool that helps parents stay engaged in their children’s education. Parent coordinators are expected to help parents set up, create and understand their parent portal accounts.
Creating a Parent Account If a parent/guardian needs assistance creating a Parent Portal account, the parent/guardian can schedule an appointment with the parent coordinator for help. The parent/guardian must bring to the meeting the Parent Portal Access letter, with the Activation Key (GUID number). Access letters are obtained from the school secretary who will verify the parent/guardian identity, ask a few questions, and then issue the Access letter and Activation Key. Parent coordinators must verify you are talking with the actual parent or guardian before setting up an account. Begin the process by typing MPSMKE.com into your web browser, then access the Parent Portal at the top of the page, and finally, log in to Campus Parent.
