Digital Signature in PowerSchool Special Ed (IEP) and 504 system
Posted on 06/11/2024 at 12:00

Effective Tuesday, June 11, 2024, the PowerSchool Special Programs IEP and 504 system will have Digital Signature capability.  With this new feature, Case Managers and S504 Coordinators can electronically receive the signatures of team members and parent/guardians into their Special Ed and 504 documents.

  • Documents can be digitally signed through email or in person during the meeting.

  • When a meeting is held virtually, a Digital Signature request is sent to team members and parent/guardian to submit their signatures back.

  • IEP/504 document signatures could still be completed manually and be attached to the document.

  • Case Managers and 504 Coordinators will communicate with parent/guardians and adult students about the new signing options, and provide the Digital Signature Job Aid.

Important:

Please read the following Digital Signature job aids before using the digital signature.

PowerSchool Special Ed (IEP) and 504 job aids and other resources can be found under the Help icon (?) adjacent to your profile initials.  Select other resources, and expand the IEP and Document Job Aids and Tips header.  

Special Ed offers Help-Camps sessions in TEAMS and in person for staff. Please read the ‘Announcement’ emails for schedules. 504/ADA team, please communicate with your department regarding training sessions and dates.
