"As a Career Technical High School principal we deal with many companies, vendors and agencies. Of those companies it's often like pulling teeth to get someone to call/email you back. PublicSchoolWORKS is the exception. No matter how many changes I ask for or additions I make, they get it done and quickly I might add. 10/10 customer service ALWAYS! Very impressive and it's why I recommend PSW to the other local administrators." – Mahoning County CTC
