We used to record everything by hand or with manual spreadsheets. Semester grades could take two weeks to compile and submit to students. Now it only takes a few minutes once grades are completed online. This has freed up hours for staff to focus on students rather than paperwork. This includes transcripts, schedules, attendance, and more.
We’ve been able to consolidate dozens of spreadsheets and tasks into one central location. It’s streamlined our workflow around student scheduling and student records. It’s brought grades, assignments, attendance and other records into one location. Student feedback is instant and we can generate progress reports and track missing assignments.
