How in the world did THAT happen? (Advanced)
Thursday October 24, 2024 1:00pm - 2:15pm MDT
Ever wonder why PASI somehow has an exit date of June 14 for a student when you know for a fact there is no way they've ever had that exit date? How about wondering why a student who hasn't gone to your school for two years somehow ended up enrolled in a class?
Join us as we go through a deep dive into exactly how PowerSchool handles some of the things we do every day, and how as a result things can go remarkably awry.
