Powerschool 17-18 Renewal and Original Haiku Agreement.pdf
Summary: The Perris Union High School District would like to retain the services of PowerSchool Learning (previously named Haiku Learning Management System) for a one-year renewal term.

PowerSchool Learning is used by District teachers for course materials, assignments, collaboration, assessments, and introduces students to online learning concepts commonly found in today’s college environment. PowerSchool Learning is an essential component for implementing 21st-century learning strategies such as 24/7 learning, flipped classes, and blended/hybridized instruction. PowerSchool Learning supports Scholar+ and implementation of Common Core Standards.

PowerSchool Learning has provided its hosting services successfully for the last four years. The original Agreement was approved on March 20, 2013 for the 2013-14 school year and allowed for four optional one-year renewal terms. The District would like to extend the services for the fourth and final optional one-year term from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018 for a total cost of $62,280. The costs will be split between the District and the California Military Institute (CMI) based off of projected enrollment percentages for the 2017-18 school year. The total cost for the District will be $56,301.12. The total cost for CMI will be $5,978.88, which will be billed as a direct cost to CMI per the Memorandum of Understanding between the District and CMI.

Education Code 17604 and 17605: The Governing Board delegates the power to contract and purchase supplies, equipment and services.
Funding: The cost for this item is included in the 2017-18 operating budget funded through the General Fund.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the renewal of the Agreement with PowerSchool Learning for hosting services.
