Students see their schedules and assignments and interact in a private social media-like system, safe from the public Internet. Parents see kids’ homework and grades. Teachers get course planning, attendance and assessment tools. Administrators receive school-wide analytics. Everyone gets what they need.
Because it connects to existing systems, classes in Edsby are pre-loaded with the right students and parents automatically. Attendance, an advanced grade book, course planning, parent communication and other features become a breeze, with no setup for teachers. And, we’ve specifically made it easy to learn.
Local policies drive regional educational standards. Because every region does things a little differently from the next, Edsby is completely customizable, even to districts’ unique grading and reporting.
Teachers that use free software and public social media can run afoul of CIPA, COPPA, FERPA, GDPR and other regulations. Edsby gives districts a single, protected “walled garden” for all communications between students, teachers and parents, so confidential information stays protected.
The Edsby gradebook is a game changer. The fact that it self-populates at report card time is amazing.

Edsby is an all in one solution. I use it for quizzes, rubrics, grade managing and reporting, sharing online resources and scheduling. Edsby brings us one step to closer to the paperless classroom.

I've used PowerSchool, GradeQuick, MarkBook and other programs and I've found Edsby to be the best. Very intuitive, flexible and makes my job easier.

I like that I can always see my grades and message my teachers easily.
Amy RentnerStudent, Lakehead Public Schools
Edsby is an absolute lifesaver. If one of my kids loses his or her homework and has to print it out, I make 'em hug the laptop and say, "give Edsby a hug, it just saved your grade!" I love Edsby as a parent, educator and former student.
Siobhan HerckertTeacher, Learning Gate Community School
I'm the Edsby rep for my school. Edsby is enhancing teaching in every domain. It has truly elevated my teaching practice as well as the education of my students and parent community.
