The News Items Page allows you to create short, district-specific news items that will display to the users when they access the PowerSchool ERP Employee App. The most recent news item will display on the Homepage, but users will be able to access all news items by accessing the News menu item. Your district can configure a unique headline and message. You can also set an effective date for the news item to begin appearing to users, as well as an expiration date after which they will no longer be able to view the item.
This page is accessed through: Main Menu > System Administration > All > Employee App Configuration > News Items
