Daily Bulletin

Set up the daily bulletin for viewing in the PowerSchool SIS Admin portal, the PowerSchool SIS Student and Parent portal, and the PowerSchool SIS Teacher portal. In addition, you can modify the format of the daily bulletin, preview it, and view all bulletin items, including those that have expired. Additionally, you can specify per school whether you want the daily bulletin to display on the start page or within the navigation menu.
