Power School

PowerSchool, by Apple Computer, Inc.is a web-based student information system, which simplifies data-driven decision making by providing real-time information over the Internet. Administrators get the most accurate information to make more effective decisions. Teachers gain timesaving administrative tools. PowerSchool is built for the web, and because PowerSchool is platform independent, it can be accessed from any Windows or Mac computer with a web browser. Scheduling, and attendance are done through PowerSchool, and grades teachers enter using the companion PowerGrade are imported into PowerSchool.

Online Access to Student Grades

Beginning this year, parents and students have 24/7 access to student grades through the PowerSchool program. Having daily access to your child’s grades through PowerSchool is being provided to you as another form of communication with teachers and administration. However, even though you will be able to check grades 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week, please be advised that many assignments take considerable time to grade. Typically, grades will be posted as the assignments are returned to students. Please be patient if a grade has not been entered immediately after it was assigned. At progress report and report card dates, parents can expect the most current grades available in classes. Therefore, progress reports and report cards continue to be the most accurate indicator of your child’s academic progress. All families should have received a user name and password, which is used to access grades. If you did not receive your son/daughter’s password, please contact Mrs. Colschen at jcolschen@stoningtonschools.org.
