In their own words
PowerSchool SIS
PowerSchool SIS is a web-deployed student information system for school records and operations. It combines attendance tracking, a gradebook, parent access, and fee management. For special-education and related support workflows, it includes IEP support, accommodation tracking, goal progress monitoring, and service logging. Compliance reporting is also listed, extending the system beyond routine academic records. The product is available through web, Android, and iOS platforms, while deployment is web-based. PowerSchool SIS is paid, with pricing available on request. PowerSchool is headquartered in Folsom, California, United States, and was founded in 1997. Schools can use the listed tools across attendance, grades, family-facing access, fees, student support documentation, and compliance reporting. This makes the system relevant to institutions seeking these records and workflows in one student information product.
