Texas school district benefits from solutions designed to simplify and strengthen the teacher and substitute onboarding process

FOLSOM, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- PowerSchool (NYSE: PWSC), the leading provider of cloud-based software for K-12 education in North America, today announced Fredericksburg Independent School District (FISD) in Gillespie County, Texas has implemented PowerSchool Unified Talent Employee Records, PowerSchool Unified Talent Applicant Tracking, and PowerSchool Unified Talent SmartFind Express. This suite of solutions enables the district to more easily post teacher and administrative job listings, collect applications, manage HR personnel records, and swiftly find qualified substitute teachers.

Prior to obtaining PowerSchool solutions, all employee new-hire onboarding materials at FISD were completed by hand and on paper. All FISD employee personnel files were also contained in paper records and stored in physical filing cabinets. The district was eager to veer away from their antiquated and time-consuming process.

“PowerSchool solutions have helped our Human Resources department become much more hands-on when onboarding new employees,” said Stacy Rush, Director of Human Resources, Fredericksburg Independent School District. “Now we have a digital view of the progress of new hire paperwork so we can see how far along a candidate may be and easily jump in to answer any questions. Prior to PowerSchool we had zero access to the progress of this paperwork, so the entire process is faster and more transparent for everyone now.”

After surveying other school districts about their own experiences with PowerSchool, FISD chose to move forward and began implementing PowerSchool solutions. Ultimately, moving from a paper-based system to advanced digital systems has given back more time to FISD staff members.

“The Fredericksburg Independent School District is gaining back time that was previously lost, so they can focus on more important issues,” said Maulik Datanwala, PowerSchool Chief Operating Officer. “This is a huge step for the district as moving from paper to digital can lead to better outcomes across the board, so it’s something we’re very proud to support the district with and we look forward to seeing their ongoing success.”

Fredericksburg Independent School District is a Texas public school district serving more than 3,000 students within its 758 square miles. Located in Gillespie County, Texas, FISD has a primary school, two elementary schools, one middle school, and two high schools. FISD offers a Pre-K through 12th grade curriculum across its six campuses spanning 758 square miles.
