Managing School Records With New Software
By Pola Rosen, Ed.D.

Elementary School Scheduler and Class Aggregator are two new software programs that lead to less paperwork and more effective management of students, staff and parents in schools. Each program has a self-tutorial that explains in simple terms what the program does and how to use it.

The Elementary School Scheduler creates a master schedule from data, deals with schedule conflicts, and enables the school administrator to edit and revise schedules.

Class Aggregator lets the administrator import student and teacher data from other databases, inputs student and teacher information and develops and manipulates class rosters. For example, the program assigns students to homeroom classes by criteria set by the school staff. Part time teacher schedules can also be easily accommodated.

Parent-teacher conferences and student data can be recorded and reports generated. The software can also incorporate a homework hotline, attendance calling, and reporting of grades and attendance.
