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 attendance feature is great because you can send in your attendance from anywhere.
Scott AugustineTeacher, Greater Essex County District School Board
Edsby is super organized, making it easy for teachers to post assignments and for students to find their assignments and submit. There's lots of versatility for teachers to add links or docs, and it's very user friendly.
Mary VaughnTeacher, Hillsborough County Public Schools
The Edsby gradebook is the best thing that has ever happened to me as a teacher.
Emily DiotteTeacher, Glenwood Public School
I like getting information about what's happening in the school, how my kids are doing and their grades. Also, I can see what they haven't done or handed in.

I like being able to pull up Edsby on my iPhone. I'm glad our school chose your product. It's a great tool that's really evolved over the last 3 years.

Teachers are just gushing, ‘this is so good—I can’t believe how good this is.’

Edsby is a great investment and robust tool. It's given us a significant increase in parental engagement and happier teachers and academic staff re: attendance, gradebook and report cards.
