By ron carlson, Insanely Great Mac
March 17th 2003
Apple's education software arm adds, burnishes features for schools with up to 10,000
students
PowerSchool has announced the availability of PowerSchool v3.5. The new version
represents a significant advance in key product features as a result of customer input
and PowerSchool's emphasis on promoting student success.
"We're continuing to innovate and integrate features to PowerSchool that have direct
benefits for our customers," said Bob Longo, president. "With innovative grading
capabilities and new features including 'walk-in scheduling,' PowerSchool is leading
the way in easy to use and easy to implement student information systems."
PowerSchool version 3.5 includes an enhanced Master Schedule Builder with multi-day
scheduling, visual schedule matrices, walk-in scheduling and new scheduling reports
that schedule course enrollment and include information on room utilization and
under-scheduled students. In addition, version 3.5 expands on the already-enhanced
GPA system, adding a new integrated honor roll calculation system. The new honor roll
system enables simplified searches, as well as data import and export for creating
multiple honor roll methods that can be school-specific or shared across many schools
from a server.
PowerSchool version 3.5 is available direct. Current PowerSchool customers can update
online as part of their service agreement. Pricing info is available only from
PowerSchool.
