Re: Infinite Campus grade book
Posted by New User on 2/08/08

    You make it too easy... STOP USING HANDWRITTEN GRADE BOOKS!
    You step into the 21st century just to use what my grandfather
    used in the early 1900s for his class. You want to talk about too
    many steps? You've just created an unlimited number of
    unnecessary steps. I hate to be negative but a lot of you are
    complaining about things that are easily fixed by following best
    practices. I have used SASI, SkyWard, PowerSchool and all have
    similar issues. We started using Campus and sure it's not
    perfect, but because it's integrated into every other part of
    Campus I save tons of time. I can communicate with Parents
    (though some of you are afraid to because you still use antiquated
    methods) in real time, so much easier than exporting and importing
    from each different program under the sun. We COULD use a
    standalone grade book and get an updated UI (pretty colors for you
    kiddies out there) but it lacks full functionality in the district
    and you just can't put a price on that.
    My two cents... those of you still looking for pretty grade books
    and the one-click solution please ignore this post. Teacher
    serious about making data driven decisions in the classroom take heed.
