Fessenden-Bowdon School is excited to announce that we are transitioning from PowerSchool to Infinite Campus as our new Student Information System (SIS).
Beginning with the 2026-2027 school year, Infinite Campus will be the primary platform for accessing important student information, including:
- Class schedules
- Attendance
- Grades and report cards
- Parent and student communication
- Emergency contact information
Infinite Campus offers a modern, user-friendly experience that allows families, students, and staff to access information through both a website and mobile app.
What Families Need to Know
Parent and student accounts will be created before the start of school.
Account activation and login instructions will be shared later this summer.
Transition Timeline
Summer 2026
- Transfer student data from PowerSchool to Infinite Campus
- Staff training and system setup
- Parent account information distributed
Fall 2026
- Infinite Campus officially launches at Fessenden-Bowdon School

We understand that changes in technology can bring questions. Fessenden-Bowdon School is committed to making this transition as smooth as possible for our students and families. If you need assistance, please contact the school office.
Thank you for your patience and support as we implement this exciting upgrade.
