Case Study: Horry County School District achieves $14,000 annual postage savings and streamlined online registration with PowerSchool Registration (PowerSchool)

Horry County School District Saves $14,000 Annually in Postage Alone Using PowerSchool Registration

Horry County School District, the third-largest district in South Carolina with 51 schools and over 40,000 students, struggled with fragmented, paper-heavy registration processes—each school used different methods, creating chaos for staff and families and generating significant costs for paper, postage, and manual processing.

By implementing PowerSchool Registration’s online system and Payment Management services, the district centralized enrollment, eliminated paper packets, and streamlined fee collection for more than 50 payment types. The change saved an estimated $14,000 annually in postage, freed staff time, sped up state reporting with instant, accurate data access, and was supported by responsive PowerSchool specialists who helped tailor the solution to the district’s needs.
