RISE Prep Lower & Upper Academies are seeking approval to transition to PowerSchool for its required Student Information System starting in the 2025-2026 school year. To take advantage of significant savings, RISE would need to enter into the new contract before 1/1/25 when the incentives expire. Billing would not start until the new fiscal year (7/1/25). PowerSchool offers far more user friendly modules for staff, families, and internal/external data collection & reporting than RISE's current SIS, ASPEN. Outside of implementation year, PowerSchool will be an approximate 1:1 trade in cost as ASPEN. |
