History
PCR Educator’s history traces back to 1989, when PCR Educator founder Thomas deBettencourt managed the company developing database systems for large corporations such as IBM, MCI, NASDAQ, USAir, and the White House. However, when the founder’s wife, who was a teacher at a local school, began struggling with the process of recording students’ grades and report card comments, PCR Educator’s first teacher software was introduced. PCR Educator's student record management (SIS) was the company's flagship product, which paved the way for other school management software modules developed by PCR Educator.
