First Nation school system utilizes PowerSchool
solution to provide equitable instruction and learning
opportunities for all students
PowerSchool (NYSE: PWSC), the leading provider of cloud-based
software for K-12 education in North America, today announced
Kitchenuhmaykoosib Education Authority (KEA) in Northwestern
Ontario, Canada, selected PowerSchool Student Information System
(SIS) as its primary student information system. With PowerSchool
SIS, KEA can securely administer scheduling, attendance, grading,
calendaring, and other needs in one unified solution. KEA will
begin utilizing PowerSchool SIS at the beginning of the 2022-23
school year.
“The selection and implementation of PowerSchool SIS will create
positive impact for our schools,” said Roy Wagner, Principal,
Kitchenuhmaykoosib Education Authority. “Our prior student
information system repeatedly glitched, which reduced our staff’s
ability to access and utilize key districtwide information. The
reliability, security, and organization that PowerSchool SIS
provides will serve as substantial benefits for our school
system.”
PowerSchool SIS’s intuitive, all-in-one platform will enable KEA
to improve parent-student-teacher communications, staff
collaboration, and reporting efforts. The ability to accomplish all
this within the PowerSchool SIS interface and secure system is a
significant plus for the school system.
“It’s vital for school systems to utilize advanced technology to
organize their educational information and all aspects of
operations,” said Maulik Datanwala, Chief Operating Officer,
PowerSchool. “We’re thrilled KEA chose PowerSchool SIS to have the
scalability and flexibility needed to increase family engagement
and improve student outcomes for years to come.”
KEA oversees the local JK-12 school, Aglace Chapman Education
Centre, in Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug (also known as Big Trout
Lake or KI), Ontario. A new C$42 million school will be completed
by January 2023. KI is located about 580km north of Thunder Bay,
Ontario. Residents speak Oji-Cree (Anishininiimowin, Severn Ojibwe,
or Northern Ojibway) and English.
