K-12 public, charter, independent/private schools and districts. Used by Administrators, teachers, parents, and students.
ClassReach has been designed to fit both traditional and non traditional structured schools of all sizes. Started for K-12 private schools and has been adjusted to fit many higher education models.
The ability to customize the SIS product with PowerSchool and third party vendors is a nice feature. It's ability to integrate with other education products is also a strength.
There is no symbol that calculates as a 0 but is a notification for absentees. Instead, they see the 0 (even if I have the green absentee symbol next to it), and automatically think, "That's it.
PowerSchool is a great tool for both me and my child. It is easy to navigate and displays perfectly on mobile devices.
The software was hard to navigate and the teacher comments were not easily viewable. Overall, I found the software disorganized.
My husband and I would check it from time to time and we found it was a good conversation starter to let them know how proud we were of their improvement, progress etc.
I struggled to find the specific reports I need and often have to "made do" with something that is close to what I'm looking for.
I like how PowerSchool helps integrate all the resources in one place. It is very easy to add multiple students in one account itself, like siblings from the same family.
If your periods are coded as different Classes by your District, you will be forced to open, close, enter grades, repeat... over and over for each separate class.
We love the basic set up of CR, and we appreciate the various options we’re given to customize what’s best for our families.
The server seems to be slow sometimes and the messaging can be frustrating (cannot forward; if you reply to the message and add a recipient, they can then see the entire thread).
ClassReach has awesome customer service and is always working to improve their product. We have been super happy with it compared to other systems we have used in the past.
There is no easy way to input agenda from week to week. There is no way to copy and paste to the agenda from a word document.
This has been a great blessing. We have been given excellent customer service, and will continue to use ClassReach as our school grows.
One example of a limitation is that their financials don't allow for credits to be posted to a family's account.
ClassReach is an amazing product and has been good for our school. Every time I have a question or run into an issue, they are quick to help me and get it fixed if need be.
It is slow to refresh, causing you to lose grades if you switch away from a page too quickly after entering them. Not many options for customized reports.
