How does PowerSchool help parents, students and teachers?
Students and parents can keep track of their grades and attendance. A student sometimes does not know he/she is in trouble in certain classes, until it is too late. Progress Reports given out in the old system, had old information by the time it got home to the parent or given to the student. Now a student knows where they stand and can do something about it before that grade goes to a report card. PowerSchool provides access to parents and guardians to enable them to communicate with teachers and monitor grades, attendance, and homework assignments in real time from home or the office or ANYWHERE there is an internet connection. Teachers use a program called PowerGrade. It is the grade-keeping portion of PowerSchool. Teachers use PowerGrade in the classroom to record grades, take attendance, create log entries, and make notes for themselves and for parents. PowerGrade sends data to the PowerSchool server every time teachers save their work. Teachers can take attendance in PowerSchool
