Plan to join us for our Fall 2015 PSUG-IL User Group meeting on Tuesday, November 17th!! Meet our new Illinois PowerSchool reps and hear what's new with PowerSchool 9 (and beyond). Get the latest on IL State Reporting in PowerSchool.
Do you need to "clean up" the customizations on your system? Do you have old customizations installed and want to update or install new customizations? Attend part 1 of our "PowerSchool Modernization" workshops to help bring your system up-to-date.
Our meeting will be a full-day event (9AM - 3PM) and lunch details are forth-coming. Please sign up if you plan to attend to help us with food planning. We look forward to seeing you there!!
