Utah school district sees continued
improvements to blended learning capabilities, student-teacher
engagement and enterprise resource planning through PowerSchool
solutions.
PowerSchool (NYSE: PWSC), the leading provider of cloud-based
software for K-12 education, today announced Washington County
School District (WCSD) in St. George, Utah is furthering its
investment into PowerSchool solutions to facilitate blended
learning curriculum and administrative tasks. WCSD recently chose
PowerSchool Unified Insights to aggregate student, educator and
district performance through a unified platform, and will utilize
the analytics alongside PowerSchool’s Student Information System
(SIS), PowerTeacher Pro Gradebook, PowerSchool Unified
Administration BusinessPlus, PowerSchool Unified Classroom®
Schoology Learning and Performance Matters solutions to further
student-teacher collaboration, performance monitoring and
administrative management capabilities across the district.
“PowerSchool has played a key part in running our district’s
operations for over 20 years, and we continue to invest in its
product portfolio thanks to the increasing capabilities it provides
our staff,” said Tony Campbell, Director of Learning Technologies,
Washington County School District. “PowerSchool continues to exceed
our expectations regarding how education technology partnerships
strengthen and support our overall work as a school district, and
we look forward to continuing to work with them.”
Since 1998, WCSD has utilized numerous PowerSchool products to
monitor student performance and increase student-teacher
engagement, most of which have proven to be even more important for
educators during the COVID-19 pandemic. Over the past two years,
WCSD has cited Unified Classroom® Schoology Learning as a key
resource that has helped teachers reach their learners and provide
quality instruction, despite shifting learning environments.
Similarly, WCSD’s use of Performance Matters has helped educators
measure and analyze student performance to create more tailored
instructional methods for students.
Before partnering with PowerSchool, WCSD handled grading,
payroll distribution and reporting through disparate and manual
methods, causing operational inefficiencies. Realizing the need for
a unified solution, WCSD began using PowerSchool and saw
improvements to student performance monitoring, enterprise resource
planning and overall collaboration between students and staff.
Further, WCSD parents, students, teachers and administrators have
benefitted from managing and tracking student performance through a
single, comprehensive platform.
“Offering an intuitive, easy to use ecosystem of solutions for
both educators and parents is a priority,” said Craig Greenseid,
PowerSchool Chief Revenue Officer. “As one of our company's
customers since our inception, we’re proud to continue supporting
Washington County School District as it continues its mission
toward providing stellar teaching and learning experiences for
students.”
Founded in 1915, WCSD is a school district located in St.
George, Utah. WCSD offers a Pre-K through 12th grade curriculum,
currently serving 35,000+ students across its 53 total schools. The
district has received several trade and state accolades and awards,
including ongoing accreditation by the Northwest Association of
Accredited Schools and as one of the Best Places to Teach in Utah
by Niche, among others.
