@cbcmanitoba: Some students and staff say the Winnipeg School Division's switch to PowerSchool — an online management system for attendance, report cards, timetables and communication with families — has been done too quickly. Unions representing workers with Manitoba's largest school division say the move has caused frustration among their members. #mb #winnipeg #student #teacher #school
You mean you didn’t have to walk in and read it off paper taped all over the corridors ?

PowerSchool: leaking student information all over the internet with no consequence of action. Also: PowerSchool, a program that no teacher ever said “that was an easy thing to use”

A few years ago Gov MB put out a thing wanting one student information system across all divisions. They should have invested the time and money into developing their own system, that’s Canada owned, and where it’s guaranteed that the data stays within Canada. The transition was horrible for Sunrise School division too.. they went from Maplewood Connect, Then Edsembli Connect, now PowerSchool. Whoever is making these technology decisions (most likely MERLIN) should really rethink their choice in contract partners.

Other school divisions in Manitoba have been using Powerschool for years and it has been a very useful tool for not only the kids but the parents as well

I retired from an administrative school job 6 years ago. I had used Power School for years. It is a great program and will make a big difference when it is fully setup.

For the record, teachers received zero training on the new system and were told to figure it out. They also didn’t get access to it until the day before kids were set to arrive.

This has nothing to do with the system itself, it’s a poor implementation plan executed by the WSD. Too many people were more concerned with their summer holidays vs actual student experiences.
