Student record: Family
This view of a student record [>>] displays the student's family. In PowerSchool SMS, a family consists of a group of one or more related students (siblings).
In a system that employs family management [>>], PowerSchool SMS automatically creates a family for a student when that student registers. The criteria for determining siblings within a family differ from district to district. Typically, brothers and sisters, are considered siblings. However, step-brothers or sisters who live in different homes may or may not be considered siblings in the same family.
