Open Admin for Schools
Open Admin for Schools is web-based school administration
software. It offers demographics, attendance, discipline,
report cards, and has an online gradebook and
parent viewing function. It is designed for
elementary, K-12, and high schools.
Open Admin for Schools is designed to support
an entire division on one or more central computers but also works for
a single school. Currently several school divisions use
this approach and have 15+ schools on a single central server. This is
because it is designed to be lightweight both in server resource
requirements and in communication bandwidth.

information that can be viewed and printed in a variety of ways

periods per day for elementary grades vs high school and middle
