Pros

“I can add registered students, assign them to classes, record class attendance, and send emails to specific students, families, or classes as needed.”
BS

Bridget S.

Headmistress

“As a Bible college that works primarily with mail correspondence students, having a reliable and easy-to-use platform to track grades, manage student progress, and maintain clear communication has been invaluable.”
DC

Daniel C.

Administrator

“Love the ability to upload documents relevant to work and what has been handed out so all students have access to material even when absent.”
VL

Valarie L.

Teacher

Pros

“It really helps with managing grades to see if you need help of to improve and it is really fun to go on to compete with who has the best grades”
AK

Austin K.

SHUT UP

“Overall, I really enjoyed learning how to use this tool and even showing parents and students how to use to stay on top of their grades, advocating for themselves and parents to stay in the know.”

Counselor

“Support has been excellent, it easily integrates with ClassLink and MFA, and the system has been extremely easy to maintain and upgrade.”
BS

Ben S.

Infrastructure Architect

Cons

“One major drawback I’ve experienced while using IGradePlus as a teacher is the lack of an automatic save option. When creating or editing lesson plans, assignments, or student feedback, I have to remember to manually save everything.”
RM

Ramona M.

Classroom Intern

“Additionally, printing grade reports can be challenging when trying to include all important information such as individual grades, lesson titles, and quarter summaries.”
RM

Ryan M.

Teacher

“It is not possible to make a schedule of scheduled lessons and for these lessons to appear on the teacher's home page on the days of the scheduled lessons.”
RB

Robert B.

Administrator

Cons

“Every time I try to log in it forgets my password and I have to contact I.T. for a reset and even if I remember my password it will still not let me log in if I log out after that.”
AW

Amanda W.

Sub

“There could be so many useful reports added but it's like they started developing it and then just suddenly stopped and called it good.”
KL

Kara L.

Director of Business Services

“Horrible UI, bad graphics and design, slow and clunky, features that just don’t work, overpriced”
