“A lot of times for a foreign language, the homework will be that they have to use a certain verb tense. I will tell them to keep doing a practice quiz until they get 100. I can then track how many times it takes them, and then depending on how much they practice at home, you can see their performance improve.”

"PowerSchool SIS has provided our district with exactly what we were looking for – an intuitive platform to help manage day-to-day administrative tasks. We look forward to leveraging the platform to support our regular operations moving forward."

“Content is organized in the same way for every class.”

“I’ve interacted with PowerSchool SIS for a long time, and I’ve always liked it because it’s very customizable and flexible.”

“We’re not technology people. We’re educators.”

“Often as researchers, we collect data, report on it, and we think we’re finished. I think now we must realize that we might need to do that same survey or that same study again, and again, and again.”

“When we found [Unified Insights™ Powered by Hoonuit], we realized that it was by far the most robust of the solutions we were considering in terms of its ability to pull data from multiple sources. I’ve noticed that teachers, in particular, really benefit from the platform. They’ll use it at the beginning of a school year to see where their students are starting from and begin to predict what their needs may be.”

“PowerSchool Enrollment was the perfect product, as we have been a PowerSchool user for the past 10 years. The creation of documents and installing them into our system was an easy process. Our team was able to condense the number of documents that our parents currently complete, which helped streamline the process. We are looking forward to rolling this out during our second semester. Jill Barlow and [the PowerSchool] team were outstanding to work with.”

“When we started with our data in Unified Insights, everyone could see how it would work for us. There are numerous dashboards right out the box, but we can also customize them as we see fit throughout the process. When you actually see the numbers, the graphs, and the charts, it makes a world of difference. With Hoonuit, we’re able to see the data, use it as information, and make it actionable.”

“The transition to PowerSchool Enrollment Express has made it very transparent what we are getting out of registration. It is easy to use and adjust the forms to fit our needs. We have lots of custom fields and we use PowerSchool to gather very specific data for our needs.”

"Data in the absence of any context just isn’t useful data."

“Accomplishing the Agnews redistricting was no small feat. But throughout it all, I always felt I had a partner in [PowerSchool, formerly Hoonuit]. Their consultants were there, day or night, to help us navigate unexpected hurdles and land on a redistricting decision everyone was confident in.”

“Our state recommended that students should not have negative accountability for anything that happens during this time. So, grades are not permitted to be lower than they were on the last day in school. Now we have an easy snapshot of each student’s grades on the last day of school and where their grades are now.”

“If they don’t check in, they’re assumed to be absent. However, they may have overslept, or they could be having internet or device issues. Maybe an older brother uses their family’s device before other siblings. The survey report makes it easy to see where follow-up is needed.”

“It’s insightful to see if there are significant changes in engagement levels among our student groups.”
