Take the First Step Toward Holistic Student Data Insights

To build on the power of technology in education, PowerSchool acquired Hoonuit, a leading K-12 analytics and data management tool. All of our products will benefit from the integration of data and analytics. Our strategy is to give educators, schools, and districts access to breakthrough analytics that integrate with the PowerSchool SIS, PowerSchool Schoology Learning as well as PowerSchool’s operations and talent products that they currently use in order to provide a truly holistic approach to student data.

An SIS sits at the core of a district’s student data management efforts, allowing them to easily access student information, attendance, schedules, report cards, and other key data. However, districts rely on multiple software systems to power their operations. If the goal is to unleash the power of PowerSchool SIS data, they must first connect and integrate all of these data sources.

While data-driven instruction is revolutionizing education, most districts are still in the early stages—identifying the best ways to empower their educators so they can take action based on data. A key challenge is that this data exists in silos, which prevents holistic, outcome-oriented analyses. For example, SEL survey data might be kept in a completely different system than core SIS or assessment information.

PowerSchool Analytics & Insights aggregates all district data, including PowerSchool SIS data, to give educators a complete view of student information, allowing them to address the needs of the whole child. True data interoperability reduces demands on educators’ time and drives efficiencies across the entire data analysis process. Instead of needing to jump across three or four systems, Unified Insights presents all relevant information together in one spot for a comprehensive view of schools, classrooms, and students. This allows educators to analyze rich data visualizations and make the best decisions to drive student outcomes.

The valuable information managed and stored in PowerSchool SIS becomes more impactful when combined with all the other data sets in a K-12 system and accessed through a dynamic data and analytics platform.
