“We stay connected with our students using Schoology and Zoom. Because we use Schoology every single day, my kiddos have had almost no problems changing over to remote learning. One of my students sent me a message in Remind, saying that even though he didn’t like school very well, he really missed being in our classroom, but having Schoology helped him feel like he was at school, when he really wasn’t. I told him, that school is not the building, it’s the people.”
"Candidate Assessment allows me to have an objective measure to help in not only the screening process but also in making final decisions about which potential candidate has the best chance to grow students throughout the year."
“Our technology plan called for a one-stop-shop, and that was part of our decision to go with PowerSchool.”
“I think the first start is to have a solid scope and sequence that you can manipulate and that your team is willing to buy into and go with you.”
“We love having an LMS where the students are accountable for their grades, but they are also able to track their progress and keep in touch with their teacher.”
“What has saved us and helped us when it has come to our Online and Blended Learning has been Schoology itself!”
“Now, Schoology is the one-stop-shop where we run everything. It’s so important. Every minute counts because when our systems go down, learning stops.”
“We can assess our students at home if they are absent. This is an amazing thing for moving education forward.”
“What stood out to me was how willing PowerSchool was to customize my solution to what I needed. Philip and Ashlee were excellent at listening, understanding, and meeting me with my product priorities. They allowed for the implementation to be motivated by my needs.”
“Don’t be afraid to tell your students we are all learning together.”
“The team was on it all the way. They were patient and offered solutions when we needed them.”
“We digitized the whole process, and it’s working well.”
“They held our hand every step of the way and made the process seamless for us. We worked on specific reasonable deadlines and they were met on the PowerSchool end every single time.”
“(Students) know exactly what I want them to improve for next time.”
“[Hybrid Learning] presented challenges to our teachers for taking attendance. One of the solutions was built into PowerSchool already – and that was the Seating Chart functionality – I would highly recommend using the seating chart!”
