SchoolCruiser permits teachers to write, publish, and archive lesson plans online. The Lesson Planning Tool is template-based, requiring no prior programming skills or HTML knowledge. Their lesson plans are at their fingertips. Version 2.0 of the SchoolCruiser suite adds Attendance Recording and Grade Book features unavailable in earlier versions. With Attendance Recording, teachers can track and record student attendance online, while Grade Book allows teachers to assign, calculate, and report grades online.
Parents can access their children's grade and attendance information instantly, from work or home.
SchoolCruiser helps parents take a more proactive role in their children's education by encouraging interaction with teachers and allowing access to homework, school calendars, and lunch menus. Parents can be linked to all their children with a single login, even if they attend multiple schools within the district. Calendaring functions allow everyone in the SchoolCruiser community to stay abreast of school activities, meetings, workshops, and conferences. Districts can merge single school calendars into a district-wide calendar reporting events at each individual school. With a single glance, administrators can know which events are happening at which schools when.
