Senior Information

Transcripts now available in Parchment

Transcripts are available in Parchment.com for ordering. Your student received a Parchment invitation to create an account to their Gmail (bps-schools) account along with detailed instructions on how to create the account (if they do not already have one).

In order to view an updated transcript an order must be submitted, "quick view" does not display the most recent transcript, however, when you click the "Update" button at the bottom of the "quick view pop-up" an order will be submitted to send the transcript to your student's email. When you use the blue "Order" button from the Dashboard, you will go to the Order page, where you may request a transcript be sent to a school or another person's email, such as a parent.

Pro-tip - all students should add a "non-BPS" email address to their Parchment account, as students will continue to use this account post-graduation for further schooling and/or employment and after graduation students will lose access to their BPS emails.

If students have any questions or concerns when creating their Parchment accounts, they may visit the Student Center for assistance. Parchment is the secure method of delivering a transcript and should be used for all transcript needs to protect your student's identity and information.
