Barker completes elementary schedules early; counselors upload 89% of data to PowerSchool
Summary
Administration reported elementary schedules were completed by the end of June and the Counseling Office had entered 89% of schedule information into PowerSchool; administrators said AI scheduling would miss individualized student requests.
Dr. Love told the board that elementary schedules were "basically completed by the end of June," a year‑end goal the staff achieved this cycle. She said 89% of schedule information had already been entered into PowerSchool — a high completion rate compared with the 70% benchmark administrators consider good at this point in the year.
Dr. Love discussed scheduling complexity and said the district had considered AI to help set schedules but chose not to rely on it because current processes prioritize honoring individual student course requests: "AI could be used to set the schedules but ... it would not consider all the requests and students would lose out." The administration expects 7–12 schedules to be finalized by mid‑July.
