First and foremost, you must understand that PowerSchool provides no canned standards-based report card at this time. Certainly the national and state user groups may be able to provide you with examples like I have below, but all of these would require customization by you. Feel free to view the PPT presentation below and if your district is in design mode - I would strongly recommend that you create a summative report card that focuses on the major standards*, displays all terms/quarters and also displays all comments. * Report cards have become curriculum guides overnight and none of the standard-based authors have ever suggested that your standards report card be a booklet. Check with your Department of Education (DOE), although there are numerous standards, they too may not be suggesting that your report card include every state standard. If your district would like to have your standards shortened, I offer that service which reviews verb tense and retains the spirit and intent of the original standard while decrease the character count so it doesn't get truncated. I have recently added some sample object report (.pst) files to help those who attend my trainings and others who have not! The reports on my site are the intellectual properties of myself and DERO Technical Services and are viable to my continued success. School districts will always be able to download any of the resources from Derotechnical.com and use them for their staff. Companies wishing to use them must contact me first to ensure their use doesn't do irreparable harm to my business. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Enjoy! Thanks for visiting the site. Bob Cornacchioli, CEO |

PSUG-MA SPECIAL FINDINGS - - 3/18/11
Oracle handles page numbers as text fields and has trouble sequencing object reports greater than 9 pages. A sequence error will occur on your print outs... page 10 will be printed as the 2nd page - page 11 as the 3rd page. Work-Around is to re-order your pages in the file. In my 12 page example whihc prints as 1, 10, 11, 12, 2-9. I had place ELA as the 10th page as client wanted it printed second. Math became the 11th page and so on. Email me if you have any questions Of course if your report ( standard-based report cards is less than 10 pages, you have nothing to worry about! |
