Welcome to SIS Resources SIS is an abbreviation for Student Information Systems. One of the most popular SIS's, and the focus of this site, is PowerSchool Premier from Pearson. If you've ever wanted to get data out of Premier, you've come to the right place to learn how to do it. Here you'll find resources to use to work with the data in Premier, including probably the most comprehensive site for using the Reporting Engine on the web. The various abbreviations on the menu bar stand for: RE - the Reporting Engine feature, a powerful feature useful for creating reports and comma or tab delimited files. DDE - the Direct Database Export feature, a common method to export data from any table in the database. ODBC - the use of programs that are Open DataBase Connectivity compliant, in other words, using other programs to pull data from Premier. SQL - the use of Structured Query Language to export data in various programs. PT - Pivot Tables, a powerful feature in Excel and other spreadsheet programs that helps you analyze data quickly and easily. In addition, there is a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) section on the site. Hope you enjoy the site and find it useful and if you have any questions or comments, feel free to use the Contact link. |
