"Well designed System, needs improvements "

4/5

What do you like best about PowerSchool Special Programs?

This system is simple to use and it tracks all essential IEP data in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerSchool Special Programs?

The system blanks out when it is updating, so when I go to check my compliance mid-month (for example today which is actually my last day at a school for the year) I can't see the numbers because the system update has wiped all entered data to 0%. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
