Accessing basic student demographic data is really easy in PowerSchool.

But what about identifying students with the same household?

Again it's really easy if they're in the same school. But what if they were in different schools? Then this can only be accomplished when working at district level.

However, with the use of Family List by Street Address Report, users can now run the report at school level and not only will include students from the current school, but it'll also include students at other schools if they share the same home street address. Making it easy for school staff to identify addresses that have multiple students, even if they are at different schools.

Disciplined data is one area that schools strive to keep accurate and up to data records.

Log entries are just one of the methods available to users.

The benefit of using logs is that schools can store more than just discipline entries. While common uses may revolve around areas such as discipline, parent and/or student contact, or even health records.

Schools can choose to use log entries to track an unlimited number of topics, set up log types, subtypes entry screens, or even creating log entries themselves is really the easy part.

Once entered though, getting to that data in a quick and easy manner is a little more complicated. That is until now. With the use of our log entry report, schools can now access student log records with just a few simple clicks.

How often are your staff tasked with looking up students' current grades? What about generating at-risk reports or eligibility lists for participating in activities? What hoops do they have to jump through to get to this data and how long does it actually take?

Wouldn't it be great if you could get to this data with just a few simple clicks? Well, now you can with the use of our gradebook grades analysis.

This type of report is just a few clicks away.
