PowerSchool Integration

Prev Next

SchoolCare Works seamlessly integrates with PowerSchool SIS, empowering schools to effortlessly synchronize and manage family records for Pre-K and K-12 students.

How it Works

This is a one-way integration from PowerSchool to SchoolCare Works, using PowerSchool as a primary “source of truth”. Records from PowerSchool are transferred using a Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) and then compared to existing family records in SchoolCare Works to ensure consistent data across both platforms.

  • This one-way sync will be sent nightly as a batch job at the scheduled time determined during setup.
  • There are a total 43 fields that can be synced to SCW. This includes information for both child and parent/guardian data. The fields include details such as name, address, gender, date of birth (DOB), and more.
  • If the data in SCW is updated and differs from PowerSchool, the PowerSchool data will replace the SCW data during the nightly sync.

How to Begin Integrating

  1. A PowerSchool account is required.
  2. Add the Student ID from PowerSchool into each student's profile in the 'Student ID/Record Number' field in SCW. Important: If this is not complete, students will not sync from PowerSchool.
  3. Contact Procare Support to set up your integration.

Viewing Imported Information

Once information is imported into PowerSchool, you can view the information in SCW by navigating to Approvals > Registrations > Actions > View SIS.
