Case Study: San Bernardino City Unified School District achieves data-driven progress toward its 2030 goals with PowerSchool

San Bernardino City USD Uses PowerSchool Student Analytics to Achieve Bold 2030 Goals

San Bernardino City Unified School District needed a way to unify student data that was spread across multiple systems and make intervention tracking more consistent districtwide. Before using PowerSchool, staff had to jump between state sites, NWEA, Panorama, and other platforms, making it difficult to compare results and support the district’s 2030 goals. PowerSchool Student Analytics, specifically PowerSchool Analytics & Insights, helped bring that information into one hub.

PowerSchool implemented the solution over 18 months with phased rollout, custom dashboards, and alignment to California business rules. The district now uses the platform to track ELA performance, A-G progress, attendance interventions, and MTSS data, leading to measurable gains such as improved written performance task scores and stronger momentum toward A-G completion. PowerSchool has helped San Bernardino City Unified School District build a more data-informed culture and expand targeted student support across schools.
