Back in March, I wrote an article on the transition to Infinite Campus and how this affects local incoming military families and school registration (“Student Registration for Minot Public and Glenburn Public School Districts amid New Infinite Campus System Integration,” March 12, 2026). This article served to prepare everyone for the upcoming transition. On June 16th, 2026 the Minot Public School District sent out an email to all families on their ParentSquare app, which is their K-12 school-to-home communication platform, regarding the current transition.
Right now, our local North Dakota public schools have completely transitioned from PowerSchool to Infinite Campus. This statewide technology transition is part of the state’s BRIDGE (Building Reports Informing Data-driven Growth in Education) Project. According to the Infinite Campus website, forty-six states use this platform, which impacts 3,200 districts and eleven million students (infinitecampus.com).
The technology upgrade is expected to provide families and students with user-friendly student-information (grades, attendance, schedules) navigation and school-family communication. The unified platform also benefits district administrators with more consistent and reliable data, improved tools, and teaching supports. I highly encourage parents/guardians to visit the infinitecampus.com website, as it has a one-minute video on how students and parents can use the platform. For your situational awareness, a username and password will be provided by your student’s district, which provides student access.
Last year, our students, schools, and families ushered in new Phone-free K-12 legislation and this year we are ushering in a new platform. As we continue to evolve technologically, I encourage families to embrace the changes, appreciating that we live in a state where our North Dakota Department of Public Instruction aims to “provide a statewide system of excellent service and support to ensure a healthy school environment that fosters student success” (www.nd.gov/dpi/about-us).
