Skyward Student Management

What do you like best? Skyward Student Management Suite is very easy to use. I taught with teachers who had very little experience with technology to those who are experts. There wasn't a single teacher in my building that struggled with Skyward. What do you dislike? I did not like that once I set up groups of students, I couldn't change them later. This made it very difficult to group and grade students by their ability level. What business problems are you solving with the ...

Illinois School District

What do you like best? The system is rather easy to use and maintain. The user experience is clean and although there are a lot of pieces to the system, our staff can focus in on what they use the most. What do you dislike? The Progress database is secure, fast and functional. However, we always have to take that into consideration when integrating with other systems. Also, the integration into Active Directory is minimal and we still enter staff in both places. We would rather tie to ...

Skyward Review

What do you like best? It is easy to see the data (grades after inputted. It is also helpful that different types of grades are color coded so teachers can easily organize them. What do you dislike? Interface at times can be hard to work with. When inputting lunch and breakfast, I have to press a tiny box at every single student's name. It would be easier if I could just select or un-select all. Recommendations to others considering the product Look through all of the possibilities ...

What do you like best? I really like the system that this uses and how gradebook and the attendance are put together, which makes them easier to use. Saving the login makes accessing this quick and easy and I haven't had any technology errors from it yet! I really like how you can add commentary to the grades if they are missing or late, etc. This has really helped me stay organized. What do you dislike? Sometimes navigating between the financial aspects of this site and some of the ...
