PowerSchool

CEC utilizes PowerSchool, which allows students and parents to access and view academic progress.

Conwell-Egan Catholic High School has enrolled all students in PowerSchool. Teachers utilize PowerSchool to post grades and progress notices throughout the school year. Parents/Guardians are given their own account linked to their child(s) account, in order to monitor academic and disciplinary progress. We encourage parents/guardians to use this as an additional tool in keeping up with their child's academic and disciplinary standing. All Progress Reports and failure warnings will be given via PowerSchool. It is Conwell-Egan Catholic's expectation that parents/guardians closely monitor their child's progress via PowerSchool. Parents/Guardians can check the school calendar and the Eagle Eye for dates of Progress Reports.

View instructions on how to create your PowerSchool account.

Parents and students that have already signed up can log in here.

If you have questions about PowerSchool please contact the Office of Academics at 215-945-6200 Ext. 406.

Health & Wellness

School Nurse

Conwell-Egan Catholic is served by a nursing staff provided through Bristol Township School District. We have a school nurse on-hand every day, from 8 am - 12 pm, and on Wednesdays from 8 am - 2 pm.

Absence/Illness

To report your child's absence, please call the absentee line directly at 215-945-6200, followed by #, when prompted. All absentees must be called in before 8 am or your child will be reported as truant. This is a change from the past and is mandated by Pennsylvania Law.

Early Dismissals/Late Arrivals

If your child is leaving school early for an appointment, he or she must bring a completed early dismissal form to the Office for Student life before 7:30 am on the day they are planning to leave early. No forms will be accepted after 7:30 am.

If your child will be arriving late for any reason, a signed late arrival form must be brought to the Office for Student Life upon returning to school.

Any early dismissal or late arrival due to a doctor's appointment or court appearance will be considered excused if verification is provided along with the early dismissal/late arrival form.

In the event of an extended absence, please contact the Office for Student Life at 215-945-6200 ext. 408/409, or email Mr. Christopher DiLeonardo at cdileonardo@conwell-egan.org.
