Leaving CivicLive before September 2027.
PowerSchool has told at least one city that maintenance and support for CivicLive end after September 30, 2027. If your website runs on CivicLive, check your own notice, and plan the move while there is time to do it well.
What the public record says.
From the RFP of a city in Washington State, October 8, 2026, and its answers to vendor questions.
“PowerSchool has notified the City that maintenance and support for CivicLive will end after September 30, 2027.”
“Our vendor is no longer supporting the product, and it will all be offline.”
We found no public announcement from PowerSchool on October 22, 2026. Your own agreement and notice govern your dates.
What to do this month.
In order. None of them needs a vendor yet.
- 1Find your own notice. Ask PowerSchool, in writing, for the date your CivicLive maintenance and support end, and what happens to your content and documents on that date.
- 2Read your renewal terms. Find the notice period and the export terms in your agreement, so the new site launches on your calendar and not the vendor’s.
- 3Start the replacement now. That city’s RFP notes that its last website procurement and implementation took more than a year. A launch with time to spare leaves room for testing and for the departments to review their pages.
What moves, and how.
Onto WordPress, with the code in a repository your agency owns.
Pages
Read from the live site, so the move works even when the platform offers no export.
Documents and images
Moved out of the CivicLive document manager with their old addresses recorded, so every link can be redirected.
Events and news
Future events and current news, with their categories, into a calendar and news that departments run themselves.
Links and redirects
Every changed address and vanity link mapped and tested before launch, with a broken-link report after it.
