Co-Teaching

Starting with PowerSchool 7.6 sections can be shared with additional teachers.  This means additional teachers can be added to sections with separate access. This means that the teachers can either share part or none of the teacher side. This feature is useful in many situations beyond co-teachings. It can also be used to replace a teacher leaving early in the year, teacher aides, and observation.
