FOLSOM, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- PowerSchool (NYSE: PWSC) today announced American School of Valencia (ASV) in Valencia, Spain, has implemented Unified Operations™ PowerSchool Student Information System (SIS) to digitally customize and manage core administrative responsibilities across its school system. Specifically, the easy-to-use student information system has helped ASV improve administrative operations and boost overall productivity, along with managing scheduling, attendance, grading, calendaring, enrollment, and other core administrative functions.

“Like other international schools, we needed to customize many aspects of our program, including our grade scales, assessments, and bilingual report cards,” said Samuel Landete Benavente, Innovation and Technology Director, American School of Valencia. “PowerSchool SIS has been an effective tool to support each of our institutional needs, especially as we’ve shifted to more Standards-Based Assessment.
