Meta Customization Catalog

This catalog includes a variety of customization tools designed to help districts extend and streamline their use of PowerSchool. The catalog is delivered as a plugin layered directly into the PowerSchool SIS application for seamless access.

 If you're interested in seeing firsthand how these customizations can benefit you and your team, I would be happy to schedule a demo with you. During the demo, we can address any questions you may have and provide insights into how our customizations can optimize your PowerSchool usage.

 In addition to our META Customizations Catalog , you may also be interested in our free plugins that we have provided through PowerSource:

  •  Start Screen Fields - This plugin will add up to 3 student fields as additional columns to the Start Screen Student Selection.
