Dashboard

The Dashboard, accessible at both the district and school level, provides you with an instant view of a broad range of data in a concise, graphical format. Each chart, or widget, can be added or removed to customize the data that appears on your Dashboard. Depending on your system configuration and how you sign in to PowerSchool, two or three tabs appear on the page.
