PowerSchool Teacher User Guide

Introduction

Use PowerSchool Help to learn the PowerSchool Student Information System (SIS) and to serve as a

reference for your daily work. However, before you can begin using PowerSchool, the PowerSchool

administrator at your school must set up the system and import the data from your previous

system. Once those steps are complete, you can start using PowerSchool. Use PowerSchool Help to

assist you in navigating in PowerSchool.

PowerSchool Help is updated as PowerSchool is updated. Not all versions of PowerSchool Help are

available in a printable guide. For the most up-to-date information, click Help on any page in

PowerSchool.

There are user guides available that include the same information as PowerSchool Help for each

major release of PowerSchool. These user guides include instructions for certain user roles, though

these roles will vary depending on your school or district's circumstances. For the most recent

version of the printable guides, visit the PowerSchool Customer Support web site at

https://www.powerschool.com/support/documentation/userguides/

. This URL is case-

sensitive.

Note: You need a username and password to view anything on the PowerSchool Customer Support

web site. Contact your PowerSchool administrator for access.

You are encouraged to read each section of the help that pertains to you. While the introductory

sections build a foundation of knowledge that you will use every time you log on to PowerSchool,

the remaining sections are independent of each other and can be read in any order. However, if

you have never used PowerSchool before, it will be most helpful if you start with the section

“

Introduction to PowerSchool

.” Whenever you read this guide, keep the following points in

mind:

•

The actions you can perform in PowerSchool depend on your job responsibilities and

subsequently on your level of access to PowerSchool. Some users only have viewing rights

to some pages. Others can view or edit any page. Still other users can view or edit any page,

and create new ones as well. Finally, some pages are view-only for everyone. This guide

outlines viewing, editing, and creating options for most pages. Depending on your needs

and your level of access, only certain options will be applicable and available to you. If you

find that your work requires a greater level of access, contact the system administrator at

your school.

•

Almost all of the activities described in this guide begin by selecting the appropriate

student or group; thus, it is imperative that you understand how to search for and select a

student. For detailed instructions on how to do this, refer to the section "

Search and

Select

•

The school and student records used in this guide differ from those displayed on your page

as you work. You will work with real data based on student records at your school. The

graphics in this guide are only examples.

•

In PowerSchool, different pages provide some of the same information because you view

the same data from a different place each time. If you add, change, or delete data on one

page, it will be added, changed, or deleted on other pages that contain the same field(s) of

data.

PowerSchool Teacher User Guide

Introduction

•

The reporting features described in this guide are some of the most important you will use

in the system. A PowerSchool report is a statement of student or staff records that is

produced for viewing or printing and can include information text in addition to the report

listings. PowerSchool reports include report cards, lists of class schedules, lunch balance

sheets, mailing labels, lists of current staff members, and attendance records.

•

Use PowerSchool to create numerous types of reports that pull selected data quickly and

easily. Select from a list of pre-configured reports that have preset parameters or create a

custom report to include parameters needed for a specific task. You should read the

sections "

Custom Reports

" and "

Pre-Configured Reports

" before creating a report.

Legend

•

This guide uses the > symbol to move down a menu path. Thus, if instructed to "Click File >

New > Window", begin by clicking the File menu. Then, click New and Window. The option

noted after the > symbol will always be on the menu that results from your previous

selection.

•

It is easy to identify notes because they are indented and prefaced by the text Notes:.

This document is intended for teachers who use PowerSchool.

PowerSchool Teacher User Guide

PowerSchool Teacher Introduction

Teachers have indirect access to PowerSchool through their work on PowerGrade, but they can also

directly log in to the system. Teachers can view some of the same pages as school administrators

and do some of their most important record keeping directly in the PowerSchool system.

Open PowerSchool Teacher

There are three pieces of information you must have before you can log in to PowerSchool Teacher.

PowerSchool URL

Since PowerSchool is web-based, the PowerSchool system at your school must have an Internet

address. The teacher program probably also has its own address. If you do not know the address for

PowerSchool Teacher at your school, contact your PowerSchool administrator.

Username

Your PowerSchool administrator assigns your username, which can be a variation of your first or last

name. If you are not sure of your username, contact your PowerSchool administrator.

Password

Your PowerSchool administrator assigns your password. When you log in to PowerSchool Teacher,

you must enter your password exactly as it is assigned. Spelling is important! If you do not know

your password, contact your PowerSchool administrator. You cannot access PowerSchool Teacher

without it.

Note: Do not use your colleague's password or give your password to anyone. Security is very

important in PowerSchool.

delay your work. It is not recommended that you write down your password for fear that an

The icons on the Current Classes page open different pages, where you can perform different types

of activities. You do not need to complete the activities in any particular order, but you should be

familiar with all of them.

How to Take Attendance

While you can take attendance in PowerGrade and save the records to your local data file, use

PowerSchool Teacher to save the records directly to the PowerSchool system. Thus, you have two

ways to take attendance.

Substitute teachers can take attendance here as well if they have a username and password. It is

not necessary for them to open PowerGrade and try to figure out how to navigate there. They can

take attendance, and you can synchronize your data file with the PowerSchool system when you

return.

Note: You must also synchronize with the PowerSchool system if you take attendance through

PowerSchool Teacher. If you do not do this, your attendance records will be different than those in

PowerSchool.

Record Meeting Attendance

time a class takes place within a given day.

Attendance page appears.

PowerSchool Teacher User Guide

page reappears.

Note: The next time you work with PowerGrade, remember to synchronize your data file

with the PowerSchool system.

Record Meeting Attendance for Multiple Sections

Use "Record Meeting Attendance for Multiple Sections" to take attendance by concurrently meeting

sections. If the class spans multiple periods you may need to take attendance multiple times

depending on your schools policies. Taking attendance concurrently by meeting is helpful for

teachers who instruct several sections during one meeting, since all students for that meeting

appear on one list, regardless of their sections. For more information, see the section "
