Easy-to-use tools integrated with PowerSchool Special Programs will help educators achieve better student outcomes

FOLSOM, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PowerSchool (NYSE: PWSC), the leading provider of K-12 education technology solutions, announced today its partnership with Stepwell, a web-based platform specializing in special education compliance and monitoring at the district, regional, and state levels. The partnership provides PowerSchool customers with streamlined monitoring and easy-to-use tools to help them meet Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) compliance requirements.

Available to PowerSchool Special Programs users now, the integration with Stepwell enhances collaboration between State Education Agencies (SEAs) and Local Education Agencies (LEAs) by providing visibility into timely and relevant student data, history, processes, and timelines in one place to meet IDEA compliance and achieve better outcomes for students with Individualized Education Plans (IEPs).

“This partnership is a game changer in special education because it not only streamlines the monitoring process for IDEA compliance, but it also helps with corrective action planning,” said Marcy Daniel, Chief Product Officer, PowerSchool. “We’ve taken the guesswork out of Results Driven Accountability to help educators spend more of their time where it’s needed most – with students.”

PowerSchool Special Programs users can now access the Stepwell platform’s signature offerings such as:

Modernized dashboards with “at a glance” statuses and one-click access to tasks, reports, and timelines.
Integrated workflow engine configured to drive the optimal sequence of process to ensure success and avoid compliance and performance issues.
Robust package of visualizations to bring data to life and inform decisions.
Monitoring item bank that gives users access to hundreds of vetted questions and answers to program and fiscal monitoring challenges.
Single platform for reporting and analysis.
