Student & Parent Access 24/7
SnapGrades lets students and parents check their current grades and homework online anytime. Everyone has their own password, so grades are always private. Because everything is updated live, you never need to upload anything. With secure one-click access, parents can bookmark a one-page summary of current grades and homework for all classes, so it's easy for them to stay informed everyday. Or you can turn off web access and email grade reports directly from your gradebook.Compatible Anywhere
Your grades are stored securely on our servers, so you can access them from any computer with internet access. No software to install! No need to synchronize files or lug your laptop to and from school! SnapGrades works on Mac OS 9/X and Windows with Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, or Netscape; no plug-ins required.![]() Security & Backups
![]()
The SnapGrades servers are backed up nightly and staffed 24x7x365, with security and backup generators. It uses SSL 128-bit encryption, the same security used by your bank and the military, so no one else can access your gradebook. If someone tries to login as you, SnapGrades emails you an alert immediately. You also can review backups of your grades from any date and restore it if you need to. Just as your money is safer in a bank than at home, your grades are actually much safer here than on your computer, which is more likely to be stolen, hacked, destroyed by fire, or fatally crash.SIS Integration
SnapGrades can exchange data with most Student Information Systems (SIS) to:
Elementary, Secondary, College
SnapGrades has specialized modes for multiple-subject classes, single-subject classes, and adult education.Email & Alerts
Email grade reports directly from SnapGrades to students and/or parents. Or customize automatic alerts to parents whenever a student is absent, missing assignments, or has low grades. Send to one student, one class, or the entire school. It even remembers each student's resource teacher, so you can send reports to other staff all at once. Emails can include announcements and personal notes, as well as actual grades and assignments, so students and parents don't need to login.Attendance
SnapGrades supports period, daily, and half-day attendance. Teachers can take roll online by seating chart or roll sheet. Attendance clerks can clear absenses, etc., and check to see who has not taken roll yet. Use the built-in attendance reports and ADA calculations, or integrate it with your SIS.Homework Board
SnapGrades has an integrated homework board for you to post any homework or announcements, even if it's not a graded assignment. When students login, they see homework for all their classes on one page. To ease your workload, you can let your TA post homework for you!Seating Charts

Faster & Easier
SnapGrades is designed for efficiency and ease-of-use so you can get your job done faster. For example, to grade the same assignment in three classes, all other gradebooks require you to navigate through 10-18 screens, but with SnapGrades you're done in 3!
SnapGrades is so much faster because it was designed from the ground up by a teacher, so each feature is optimized specifically for what teachers need. For example, secondary teachers usually give the same assignments to multiple classes, so SnapGrades offers this as the default option without requiring you to retype or copy the assignment. SnapGrades also makes it easier for you to undo mistakes, enter and transfer students, print reports, and countless other tasks. See Compare for details. Custom Grading
Reports
Easy-to-read reports, beautifully formatted for printing. Unlike some gradebooks, you can print reports for all your classes/subjects at once.

Because SnapGrades is web-based, we can remotely view your gradebook whenever you need help, and even adjust your settings for you! |
