"PowerSchool helped centralize our data systems by maintaining full control over one truth-of-record for our district. This in turn helped streamline some of the daily classroom processes such as attendance and grading. Our overarching goal was to remove technology as a barrier and position it as a tool that will simplify the teacher’s day.”

"Having accurate data means I can effectively project revenue and expenses for the next few years. Budgeting is actually pretty simple. [Instead,] I can focus on projections and working on a few scenarios to improve salaries and benefits for staff."

“PowerSchool and PowerTeacher Pro is helping the school district through the classroom graphing view of proficiency. They are using this view at a quick glance to determine if a class is proficient in specific standards and that planned instruction included those specific standards. With the easy view available in PowerTeacher Pro, they are able to change their planned instruction based on how the class is learning and performing, which helps use instructional time more wisely and helps boost student learning.”

"Now that the structure is consistent across the district, we can focus more on communicating the quality of what we’re seeing to teachers. That gives us higher quality evaluations, which can lead to big gains in teacher growth."

"If any of our employees want to change their forms, such as tax forms, direct deposit, benefits, and more, no one has to come down to us. All they have to do is log in to Employee Records and complete the documents they need to complete, and then we can process from home on our end."

"The ability to drill down from school–wide data to individual student data is a powerful support for instruction and school improvement."

"We have a student whose family speaks Vietnamese, but we don’t have anyone on staff who speaks Vietnamese. Unified Home Communication makes it possible for us to regularly communicate with them."

"I love the PowerTeacher Pro gradebook. Teachers easily learn how to do grades and view student progress."

"PowerTeacherPro provides an excellent and powerful gradebook which we use to record, analyze, and report on student performance."

"Ecollect Forms enabled us to make PowerSchool the central data source at Chester County Intermediate Unit. Custom forms simplify our processes and data collection throughout the year by streamlining how data is collected and what data is being asked for. With Ecollect Forms, we can meet the needs of all stakeholders and provide excellent customer service in a timely manner."

"We implemented KiNVO in 2016, and if you look at our data, that’s exactly when you see an increase in our attendance and graduation rates, decrease in chronic absenteeism, and an increase in state exam scores."

“Family Engagement is important because it helps parents and guardians keep a stronger pulse on how their child is doing in school.”

“Everyone knows the strong connection between attendance and student performance.”

"The PowerSchool ecosystem audit was an amazing opportunity for our school district. The PowerSchool team took the time to meet with all stakeholders, listen to the various concerns, and assemble a comprehensive plan which met the needs of our district. Without a doubt, we would not have been able to move forward with our curriculum and assessment plan without PowerSchool’s assistance."

"Once the charter school decided to purchase and implement the Unified Classroom, they were able to gain instant insight into student performance to better gauge their progress, which enabled them to have valuable and meaningful conversations with parents about their children’s education. Additionally, having a single sign-on environment that managed all class data and grades in one area lessened the administrative load on teachers, allowing them to focus on what they love: teaching. In using PowerSchool Unified Classroom™, we have improved both communication and collaboration in our school community to further help us reach our goal of empowering students to be successful in life."
