Installing PowerGrade

Before beginning installation you will need to know the IP address of your PowerSchool server and your PowerSchool Connectivity Key. This information should be available from your Powerschool administrator.
Macintosh Screenshots
1. Double-click on the Install PowerGrade icon
2. The dialog window should indicate a Data File (1). Click the New... button (2).

Note: Do not click the New Folder button.

Note: If more than one teacher is using PowerGrade on one computer you must create a datafile for each teacher. For detailed information, click here.

3. If you do not share a computer, leave the name as PowerGrade.data (1) and click the Save button (2).

Note: If more than one teacher is using PowerGrade on one computer you must create a datafile for each teacher. For detailed information, click here.

4. Enter your PowerSchool Server IP Address (A) and click the Continue button (B).
5. PowerGrade will contact the server. Select the proper school (1) and click the OK button (2).
6. Select the proper year (1) and click the OK button (2).
7. Select your name (A) and click the Continue button (B).
8. Enter your connectivity key (A) and click the Continue button (B).
9. PowerGrade will let you know your classes are available. Click the OK button (1) to continue.

Note: After clicking the OK button you will be "in" PowerGrade but a splash screen does not appear to tell you that. On a Macintosh you will see your normal desktop (on a Windows machine it will be a gray screen) but the menu at the top of the screen will change to a PowerGrade menu (A).

If you should inadvertently click on the desktop and "lose" the menu, click on the PowerSchool Icon (Macintosh: Dock or Applications - Windows: Task Bar) again to bring the menu back.

10. Click on the Classes menu
(B above) to continue.
