Overall Satisfaction with Skyward Student Management System
My school uses Skyward Student Management System for grading, attendance, and student/parent communications. In My opinion, the attendance and grading features are worthwhile. I do not use the communications aspect, as we also use Google Classroom and it has easier to use options to communicate with students and parents using its Gmail interface.
- Grading
- Attendance
- Report Card posting
- Does not import assignments or grades from Google Classroom
- Software times out too quickly, if inactive for a short period of time
- Should come with "Intro to Skyward Student Management System" video trainings for new teachers or people who have not used this software tool before.
To be honest, I would prefer that our school switch to the Google platform entirely, so that all elements are self contained. Many if our teachers use GC for classroom activities and then need to re-enter grading info into Skyward Student Management System, as there is no way to import the grade/assignment data.
