admin

PowerTeacher Grade Book not Launching on a Mac. With the upgrade to PowerSchool 7.6, reports have been made regarding the PowerTeacher Gradebook not launching on older versions of the Mac operating systems (OS 10.5) with Safari. A potential work around is. If PowerTeacher Gradebook does not automatically launch, open the downloaded file “LaunchGradebook.ptg” 4. When the Gradebook opens, your installation is complete. To launch PowerTeacher Gradebook in the future, click “Launch” in the New Gradebook Launch area, or use the newly created Gradebook Login shortcut on your desktop.
