PowerSchool + EduTrak

School payments that work inside PowerSchool.

EduTrak connects directly to PowerSchool. Families pay from the same place they already log in. Your staff manages everything from one system.

Families pay without leaving PowerSchool.

EduTrak runs as a plugin inside your PowerSchool environment. Parents see their lunch account, balance, and payment history right alongside everything else in PowerSchool. No separate login. No redirect to another site.

01

Plugin installs inside PowerSchool

EduTrak lives within your existing PowerSchool setup. Nothing new for families to find or learn.

02

Student data syncs automatically

Enrollment changes in PowerSchool reflect in EduTrak. No manual imports, no lag, no cleanup.

03

Parents pay from one place

Lunch balances, fees, and account history are all accessible directly from the PowerSchool parent view.

04

Admin sees everything in real time

Payments post immediately. Your food service team and business office are always looking at the same data.

Your cafeteria line, without the manual work.

The EduTrak POS handles the decisions so your staff just confirms. Free and reduced eligibility, account balances, and default meal items are all handled before the student even gets to the register.

Fast checkout

PIN, barcode, or ID card scan. Student information loads instantly. The transaction closes in seconds.

🔒

Discreet eligibility

Free and reduced status is applied automatically in the background. No flags, no separate line, no embarrassment.

Manage tuition schedules, payment plans, and billing statements from a single admin view.

All modules run on one login, one payment method, and one family portal — inside the PowerSchool environment your school already uses.

The serving line software, rebuilt from the ground up.

ESC-1000 Lotus is the current version of the EduTrak serving line software. Same hardware, completely rebuilt underneath. Faster, more flexible, and designed to handle the problems cafeteria directors run into every day.

📡

Offline mode

If your internet drops at 11:45 on a Tuesday, your line does not stop. Student data is cached locally and syncs automatically when the connection returns.

📅

Dynamic menu calendar

Menus tie directly to your menu calendar. What is on the menu today shows up on the POS terminal automatically. No one has to update the register by hand.

👥

Roster Select

Staff can pull up a class list by homeroom or grade and select the student directly instead of waiting for a scan or PIN. Good for younger grades, subs, and high-volume situations.

Lotus is now available. New customers are on Lotus. If you want to learn more or see a walkthrough, visit the Lotus page or reach out to Cally below.

FastTrak
