Case Study: London District Catholic School Board achieves real-time student data, customizable workflows & cost savings with PowerSchool SIS

Customizable PowerSchool SIS Delivers Real-Time Data and More for Ontario School Board

London District Catholic School Board, serving 18,500 K–12 students across 45 elementary and nine secondary schools in Ontario with about 2,000 staff, needed a student information system that matched its prior functionality while addressing limitations like poor customization, costly on-premise hosting, and evolving provincial reporting requirements. The Board’s priority was a web-based, user-friendly solution that would improve parental engagement and support classroom workflows.

The Board implemented PowerSchool SIS with PowerSchool Hosting, gaining a customizable, cloud-based system with parent/student portals, mobile real-time attendance, PowerTeacher Pro gradebook, and built-in OnSIS reporting. The result: immediate, mobile access to student performance and attendance, easier identification of at-risk students, cost savings and reduced maintenance from hosting, extensive provincial-compliant reports, and tailored modules (for example, an ESL module) supported by flexible training options.
