2. Plugins
The following plugins are available to be installed in PowerSchool at the request of the district's PS Functional Leader. Please submit an MAISD PowerSchool Help Desk ticket to request installation and/or demonstration.
Plugin Name |
Publisher | Description |
Asset Tracking | MAISD | Allows admin staff/technology departments to track ownership of Chromebooks and/or other devices, as well as keep repair logs. |
Awesome Report Q | NickTech |
This is the original auto-refreshing report queue (...use to be a big deal). Other features:
|
Class Roster Auto-Loader | NickTech |
The System Reports > Class Roster (PDF) function is a great way to get class information out of the system in a nice printable format. However... try explaining to your office staff that after they took the time figuring out all the parameters, field names, and column widths, to create the roster, they cannot save it for future use! This plugin allows PowerSchool admin users to save "roster sets" to a drop-down menu on the page. All users can save "personal" roster sets. You may give particular security groups permission to create roster sets for their school, or multiple schools/the entire district. The page also includes a handy little javascript which will calculate the width of the fields you have specified, and display the total underneath the "roster columns" box. This was included to get around the annoying task of running a report to see if your column widths where okay. |
Enrollment Queue/Demographic Update | MAISD | Online enrollment, yearly forms and demographic info update within the Parent Portal. |
FormLetters+ (sqlFormLetters) | Freund Resources |
FormLetters+ (formerly known as sqlFormLetters) is a free plugin that allows one to create form letters, plus individual student and staff reports. The output is an HTML page containing all of the letters, but when printed, page breaks will create individual letters and reports. The content of the letters can be just text, text and field and DAT references, or text and some of the content created using SQL. FormLetters+ can run in either the admin or teacher portal. Advantages:
|
Positive Behavior Acknowledgment | MAISD | Allows teachers and admin staff to acknowledge students' positive behaviors, track data over time, and automatically notify parents and students. |
PowerScheduler Enhancements | TE Tech |

No more navigating to other pages to correct or change the data displayed on the report. Enabled Reports The plugin is enabled for the following reports: 1. Course List: This is a great place to go when you begin your scheduling season. It lists all the courses offered at your school, along with all of the pertinent data used by the scheduling engine. Features 1. Undo Functionality: Made a mistake? No worries! Just press `Ctrl+Z` or `Command+Z` to undo the last change. |
sqlLabels | Freund Resources | sqlLabels is a reporting engine report that can take a sqlReport and create an output of Avery 5160 mailing labels based on the sqlReport. Using the SQL from the sqlReport makes everything very powerful and very flexible, and best of all, no cumbersome contacts DAT's to try to figure out! |
Start Screen Fields | META | This plugin will add up to 3 student fields as additional columns to the Start Screen Student Selection. |
Student Schedule Search | JMK |
Schedule Search allows you to search live active student schedules for holes or conflicts. It breaks your school year down into parts, regardless of how many different size term portions you have, (multiple term portions of sizes 1 through 12 supported) and searches for any holes or conflicts no matter how small. After installation, switch to a school (this does not function in District mode), click the Schedule Search button, and a dialog customized to your school will pop up offering to search through either the currently selected students or the enrolled students. You can also select which parts of your school year you wish to search as well as which day/period combinations you are interested in. Finally you select whether you are searching for holes or conflicts or both and click search. Any students matching the search parameters will be automatically selected. |
