Overall Satisfaction with Infinite Campus

The district and teachers use [Infinite Campus] in order to communicate information to parents. Parents can look up their child's attendance records, emergency contact information (among other personal information), receive important notifications, and even do online payments for school. There is a great amount of information available on Infinite Campus, so it is a good way to organize all of that important (and legal) information for parents and families. It also makes it easier whenever people need to register a child or update personal information since it is all in the same place.
  • It is very clean (not cluttered with information and buttons)
  • It keeps all personal information in one spot
  • The message center is helpful, and it is easy to see when there is a new message
  • The breakdown of attendance is done very well
  • Signing up was difficult
  • Logging in took time to figure out in the beginning
  • I wish it had more information like test results or grades
  • It's not visually appealing (very plain and boring)
  • Tracking attendance
  • District messages or alerts
  • Online registration
  • Family information, demographics, and health information
  • Many parents need IT support when signing up or trying to sign in (at least in the beginning)
  • It creates less "paperwork" when families register new students
  • It has made it easier to get parents to update family information
Tyler is a very versatile program. However, it is extremely cluttered, and many parents are overwhelmed by trying to navigate it to the point where they will not even use it. Tyler SIS allows parents to see similar information in addition to their child's grades, but the volume of information presented to them makes it almost unusable for many families. Infinite Campus may be more limited in what it provides, but it is much easier to use for parents.

If parents need to sign up a child for school, this is helpful since it organizes so much of the information needed. Whenever a parent needs to update contact information (or other important information), this provides a unified place to take care of that (which is extremely important for the district). It is also the best service I have seen in fifteen years of teaching when it comes to showing parents the attendance history of their child. However, it is not effective at getting out announcements from the district that need to be received immediately, which is why we don't even try using it for that.
