Is there any information on special hotel rates for the conference?

Sorry, not at this time, as far as I know. It is probably something the committee will look into next year. Maybe we could quickly do something for this year. No promises..... will update this if we have something. A question might be: do you want it for the night before, Tuesday night, or the day of, which is Wednesday, or both?

When I registered for NETA rooms at Embassy in the fall they accepted the NETA rate for PowerSchool. Maybe they just thought I was coming in early for NETA;) Give it a shot I guess.

The registration deadline of April 17 for the NEPSUG Conference is approaching. Get registered and join us for an information packed day! If you register after April 17, we will still welcome you, but you will miss out on a great meal.

Is there going to be something about the Health Records? Is the instant parent calling something I could use for calling parents if their child is ill or I need information for their files?

Suzanne Stevenson on April 5, 2013

I know that is something you could use AlertSolutions to do.
If you had multiple students or just 1 you could create a template recording that you need student information and then choose it for a selection of students you chose in Powerschool. School Reach is not part of the PowerSchool so not sure how that would work but I think it probably could. AlertSolutions is there is a link to it PowerAnnouncement right on the start page of PowerSchool.
