Find a PowerSchool Partner

PowerSchool does a lot of things well, but they don’t do everything. Back around 2013, PowerSchool realized it was better to support partners that enhance the functionality of PowerSchool, and they developed a Robust API to work with these partners. At one point, there were nearly 200 PowerSchool partners that integrated with PowerSchool. While today there are not quite as many, there are still many partners who serve functions that PowerSchool does not, including:

  • Payment Processing
  • Messaging
  • Transportation
  • Lunch Management

There are other segments as well for partners, and even some partners whos products now overlap with PowerSchool acquired products, such as Learning Management Systems (LMS).

The great thing about PowerSchool partners is they focus on their one function. Let’s take messaging for example. These companies have hundreds of employees and decades of experience dedicated to just getting a schools message out to the parents and guardians that need to know the information. PowerSchool would have to play catchup to build a system not nearly as robust as some of their partners. So always review the PowerSchool Partner Page and see if there is a company that provides the exact service you are looking for.

Customize PowerSchool to Meet Your Districts Unique Needs.

One of PowerSchool’s greatest features is its ability to be customized for any district. This is a key differentiator for PowerSchool in the marketplace, and when used properly, gives districts complete control over their own data. Originally, PowerSchool was a set of HTML files that anyone could modify. This created issues during upgrades causing users to compare which files they upgraded vs what PowerSchool is releasing, and then merge the changes. Back around PowerSchool 8, PowerSchool pushed out a new feature, called Custom Page Fragments, which allowed customizers to inject code segments. Now you can add a customization to a page and not have to worry about being overwritten by a PowerSchool update.

So what can be updated? The short answer is anything. But below is what is commonly customized.

Custom Data Fields

Every school district has data they would like to track, but that doesn’t exist natively within PowerSchool. Fortunately, PowerSchool provides the ability to create custom data fields, so you can store important information that is specific to your district.

Custom Pages

Once you create a custom field, you can put it on a custom page, or a custom page fragment. You can put just about anything on a custom page, including dynamic content. That means you can collect really any data you would like, and then integrate that data with 3rd party systems using technologies such as Angular.js a dn jQuery. It really is powerful stuff! Some of the most useful 3rd party applications actually look like they exist directly in PowerSchool, even though they interact with other systems. But since they are integrated into PowerSchool via custom pages, the user has a great experience doing all of their work within the PowerSchool application.

Custom Data Extracts

PowerSchool has a feature called a PowerQuery. A PowerQuery is a custom SQL query that is uploaded into PowerSchool through a plugin, and now lives in your instance of PowerSchool. Through the Data Extract Utility, you can access this set of data, and extract to an excel file on demand. You can also schedule the extract to run on a regular basis, and upload to an sFTP server. This eliminates the need for constant manual pulls of data school business officers are constantly asking for.
