"We're focusing on spending our time focusing on the people's needs, being able to spend time with them and answer their questions that they need answered and give them the attention that they want."

“Personally, I am grateful for the [PowerSchool (formerly Hoonuit)] staff. I was able to build a visual of who was impacted. I don’t have those tools nor the expertise. The work they did with and for us made a big difference in me getting my superintendent the information she needed and in our district’s ability to move forward.”

"Security and ease of use — the nice thing exactly with PowerSchool is that they have so many different companies that do so many different things that all tie in together to give that one really nice easy user experience to my teachers, who really just want to teach kids and they don’t want to have to learn technology to have to do it, as much as possible — a little bit is always helpful. They are teachers, not tech people. We can make that process as easy as possible and safe."

“Since switching, we’ve obviously streamlined the admission process. [PowerSchool Registration] took our paper application and created a solution that was exactly what we needed. We were able to implement deadlines to give us flexibility to cut off application dates. Families would know exactly what time frames they had to work with. Now families can work on their applications, save them, return to them, and then submit them when they’re ready. Families love this because it has given them time to work with the application and really do a good job in terms of submitting something that they feel good about.”

“We saw an increase in first day attendance of 24% over the previous year for our Texas College Preparatory Academies who use [PowerSchool Registration]. That is significant. It shows our post-lottery recruitment communication with families over the summer was effective. We implemented those marketing strategies only because we can, now that we have [PowerSchool Registration].”

“We selected [PowerSchool Registration] as our enrollment service provider because we wanted to find a vendor that would become our partner, as we partner with our families. We have found that in [PowerSchool Registration.”

“[PowerSchool Assessment] is the best product that I have used to create district assessments. Question alignment is spot on to the standards, and reviewing and choosing questions is seamless.”

“The crown jewel is the immediate assistance one can receive through the live-support chat feature. The immediate support has been very useful.”

“PowerSchool has helped to power a technology ecosystem in Dumont. PowerSchool was the stimulus and impetus to use technology, and then became a force multiplier in creating a seamless user experience. As a result of using PowerSchool, online resources became more readily accessible and feasible to use when our infrastructure was dramatically upgraded.”

“With PowerSchool, we found out all the wonderful things you could do to improve efficiencies through technology. For example, teachers had been taking attendance by hand, and then they would send the sheets to secretaries who made manual phone calls to parents when there was an absence.”

“Communication between parents, teachers and students has increased dramatically with PowerSchool. Parent involvement with their child and school is enhanced. Attendance is live, more accurate, and shared with the parents. And in the end, improved communication helps the student and the school system thrive.”

“PowerSchool is a product that keeps getting better and is helping Marion City Schools meet its goals in providing an excellent education. I have been to three PowerSchool University trainings and there is really a high level of genuine enthusiasm in terms of the product by the trainers and engineers we encounter. There is a wonderful commitment and ownership by all of the PowerSchool employees we work with.”

“In terms of the blended learning environments being offered at universities, we were in some sense doing our students a disservice by not providing that rich, collaborative experience while they were in our school before they moved on. We wanted to provide opportunities that help students explore and understand how that environment works. It’s really important to our students because all of our students are college bound.”

“Based on what we had been using, it was just a thousand times better.”

“Some teachers hear that there’s another new LMS and they say ‘Oh no, they’re going to make us change again!’. But teachers who tested it already told them ‘Yes, but this is actually easier to use. You’re going to really like this change.’”
