PowerSchool Software Helps School Districts

Posted by pudge on Tuesday March 18, 2003 @01:32AM from the hack-the-grades dept.

nycroft writes "Apple is helping school districts help teachers with PowerSchool, a platform-independent, web-based, student information system. PowerSchool enables teachers and administrators in school districts of up to 10,000 students to produce schedules and reports in minutes, and to generate attendance records, grade checks, report cards, transcripts, and form letters in just a few clicks. And all in real-time." It also allows such real-time access by parents to their kids' grades; I am so glad this wasn't around when I was a kid.

I don't know about your local school districts, but I live in a medium-small sized town and 10,000 students in a district is on the small side. Give me something that can handle each school as a module and update to a County based repository and I'd be impressed.
PS -> If it's platform independant, why is this in the mac section?
