“I think the biggest thing at the end of the day is we’re focused on student learning. The more we can do to learn about how our students learn, what our students are learning, and really where they are in their learning, the better we are.”

"I have been working with [PowerSchool Unified Administration solution for Canada] for eight years now and have been very impressed with the developments that they have implemented during that time.

As well, their support staff are not just knowledgeable about their products, they are also knowledgeable about us, the customer."
“[PowerSchool] is easy to use and the web application is very intuitive. We are able to easily access information and provide reports on a variety of issues. The reporting would have been a massive undertaking in the old HR system we were using."

"We love our product. In our payroll department we are pretty good about getting our numbers right, and one of the reasons that we do is because of the program we have is so efficient and utilizes every aspect that we need in order for the program to run properly in the payroll department. It seems seamless, the information is all there. When we go to pull a pay edit, everybody is there, every time. We don't have missed folks in the process."
"Maintaining data for over 10,000 students in 20 schools is time consuming.

PowerSchool Unified Administration Enrollment will help us improve our safety standards so that we can effectively and efficiently accommodate our families."
"I use the PowerSchool mobile app so that I can check how my daughter is doing in her classes and on assignments. The mobile notifications let me know when grades and attendance are updated. I can see when she’s excelling, and when she might need help on any assignments or tests."

"Having these integrated systems [Performance Matters Analytics] will ensure everyone is looking at the same data. With this information, we believe that teachers’ planning time and students’ learning time will be more focused and effective."
