PowerSchool Perform is a K-12 evaluation platform for teachers, principals, and other school staff. It brings in-person and virtual observations, peer reviews, self-evaluations, configurable forms and rubrics, evidence collection, feedback, and reporting into one workflow. The product is aimed at school districts that need formal evaluation processes across multiple participants, with support for observation templates, custom rubrics, feedback workflows, growth plans, evidence attachments, and SSO.

Pricing is handled through sales, and prospective customers can request a demo. That model suits districts evaluating a broader administrative workflow rather than buyers looking for a self-serve subscription. The product’s value is concentrated in the evaluation process: automated reminders and approvals, real-time task and process dashboards, observation scripting with timestamps, and evidence or artifact attachments linked to rubrics. Feedback can also connect evaluations with professional-development recommendations, giving administrators a way to move from observation records toward staff growth planning.

PowerSchool Perform connects with PowerSchool Professional Learning, which supports a focused fit within the PowerSchool ecosystem. Its reporting includes evaluation history and progress monitoring, while its workflow tools cover teachers, peers, self-evaluators, and administrators. Districts should consider it when they need configurable, documented evaluation workflows with multiple review types and structured evidence. Organizations seeking a simpler tool for occasional observations, transparent published pricing, or wider platform coverage may prefer a narrower alternative.
