Can PowerSchool be programmed to send automated bespoke mails from school?

Can PowerSchool be programmed to send automated bespoke mails from school?

Quick context....  I am in an international school, with children from over 60 countries.  The school has about 200-250 boarders as well.

 

A colleague and I are looking to celebrate student successes with parents through PowerSchool.  At present, teachers assign a positive log entry when a student achieves above and beyond expectation, but that goes into PS and nowhere else, unless someone does the leg work of collating the achievement list, writing a mail to parents and hitting send.  This is very time consuming and not an effective or efficient process.

 

Does anyone know if a school can programme PS to send bespoke mails (mail to be created by us in school) that are automatically sent to parents of a child who receives a positive log entry for their achievement?

 

I'm receiving a straight no by our admin guys in school but AI suggests otherwise, so I thought I would reach out here in case anyone has experience of this.

 

Thanks in advance

May be possible with extensive customization, but nothing in PS out-of-the-box.

 

AI doesn't know squat about PS in my experience.
