Skyward Student Management Suite overview

What is Skyward Student Management Suite?

Skyward's Student Management Suite is a cloud-based student information system that helps schools manage curriculum, student records, grades, attendance, reporting, and more. The platform stores student data in a centralized repository, so multiple users can access the information simultaneously via a unified portal.

The Student Management Suite includes curriculum planning tools that educators can use to create and manage student records, including grades, attendance, events, and more. With its reporting tool, users can generate detailed reports on any aspect of their school’s operations. Administrators can manage multiple schools and share data with other school districts.

With the Student Management Suite's built-in workflow engine, administrators can set up rules and processes for how data is entered, updated, and managed. School staff members can also capture and manage student information electronically during the course of their daily activities.
