Overall Satisfaction with PowerSchool Student Information System

Our school district uses PowerSchool as our primary student information system (SIS). Teachers access it daily to report grades. Parents access it regularly to check grades. The administration uses it to record all attendance. Students access it not only to verify assignments but also to select classes when balloting happens. We connect to PowerSchool through our learning management software (LMS), our mobile platforms, as well as traditional desktops.
  • The mobile app for students and parents is user-friendly and always up to date.
  • Information for master scheduling is well done and of vital importance.
  • Custom reports and settings are accessible.
  • There is a need for a mobile app for the administration to easily view information while away from their desks.
  • It would be nice if it had a more robust data warehouse for assessment data.
  • PowerSchool has made grades accessible to all stakeholders.
  • PowerSchool has provided a means for online class balloting.
  • PowerSchoool has provided a way for our LMS to connect and share information.
PowerSchool has been responsive to our needs for customization at the base-level, as well as providing training options all the way to the end-user.
