Parent Emily Anderson

 

As a parent, we hope that when we leave our sons or daughters at school, they are happy, safe, and ultimately learning. Apart from these conventional expectations what do we as parents really want to see from our child’s school or school management system? We at Wefivesoft have a great solution for this. We spoke to a group of parents to find out more about this and we came up with MarkersPro 

 

MarkersPro transforms the way Student Information System (SIS) software is imagined. It is structured to be highly intuitive, quickly customizable, easily integrated, cost-effective to manage, and easily adopted. MarkersPro platform provides schools a powerful assortment of features, tools, data/reporting, interoperability, and automation to effectively manage their day-to-day needs while remaining easy-to-use through our modern web and mobile interface. A completely customizable School Administration System to suit any specific requirements of an educational establishment. 

 

Now let us look at our findings from the discussions we had with the parent's group. So there seems to be a lot of agreement about what parents want from their child’s school systems on the following topics: 

 

    • Effective Teaching and Learning 
    • Student Health and Safety 
    • Strong Home-School communication 

 

Let us discuss the above topics in detail. 

 

Effective Teaching-Learning with Intellectual Growth 

 

MarkersPro provides various modules to help both students and teachers to have effective learning and teaching experience. To achieve that, MarkersPro has various modules such as Course, Scheduling, Attendance, Assessment, etc.  


The Course module acts as an education management information system on its own. It helps the school administrators or teachers to create and manage an informative, thorough, and effective curriculum that channels the student creativity and curiosity. It involves each subject being segregated into various courses and course sections. It helps teachers as well as parents to track their child’s curriculum development. 

 

The Scheduling module is another example of brilliant school system management from MarkersPro. It allows school administration and teachers to schedule the curriculum for an individual student as well as for a group of students. It helps in allocating subjects, courses, and teachers for different grades or classes available in the school database management system. 

 

The next one is the Attendance module. As we all know student attendance has always been a hot topic when it comes to a school system. This module allows teachers to maintain student attendance with ease because with MarkersPro you get a robust student data management system that also helps parents to track their child’s daily attendance as well previous attendance records. With options like Exam Attendance and Event Attendance, it provides a comprehensive attendance record. Apart from this, it also allows school administration to track teacher or staff attendance which is useful while allocating alternate teachers for a class to avoid any academic loss. 

 

For effective learning, it is important to have a good assessment system in place at school. With MarkersPro you do not have to worry at all. The Assessment module takes care of all the requirements. With our best-in-class Grading Module, it is easy to track and maintain the intellectual growth of the students. With MarkersPro one-of-a-kind and premium dashboard, as a parent, you are only a click away from getting all the information about your child’s progress in school. With features like auto-generated Report Card, Online Assignment Bank, Gradebook, and End of Year Summary parents can have a broad idea about their child’s intellectual growth. 

 

Student Health and Safety 

 

Even though this topic comes second on our list of topics, but it is the most talked-about issue during our parent group discussions. With that in mind, MarkersPro provides a one-of-a-kind school administration software that gives utmost importance to student safety via different modules or functionalities like Student Identifiers, Health Screening, Medical Emergency, Health Visit, Transport, Cafeteria, and Discipline 


Student Identifiers functionality helps district/ school administration to assign various identification systems to students like District-assigned Number, Family unit number, Federal Identification Number, National/ State Migrant Number, Social Security Number, and many more for better student tracking in case of emergency. 

 

Health Screening functionality allows school administration to arrange a mass student screening for Vision, Hearing, Spinal, and Dental. On other hand, Health Visit and Medical Emergency modules help to record the student’s health visit details and allow school nurses to dispense on-demand and scheduled medication. Due to the advanced school database management system by MarkersPro, it is easy to store and access the detailed medical history of each individual student. 

 

The cafeteria module is a hit among the parents, students, and staff. Food is also an integral part of schools as it keeps the students energized and sharp. Keeping that in mind cafeteria module helps the cafeteria administration to create a variety of menus every day with keeping track of the nutritional as well as allergens content of the meals for the students. It is also accessible for parents to manage food items for their children. It is very helpful if your son or daughter is preparing for any sport or athletic competition as it is easy to keeps a record of calorie, protein, fats, or carbohydrate intakes. 

 

The transport module allows the school administrations to create and manage an efficient student transportation network with detailed information on Vehicles, Routes, Transportation Staff, and Route Stops. With options like Geolocations and Pickup Drop Requests, it is a safe mode of transport for the students. A parent/ guardian can also make a transport request for their child with various instructions like Primary/ Secondary Stoppage, Hanover to Guardian, and Allow Break ensuring complete safety of the children. 

 

Discipline is very important for better education. Students who are disciplined tend to get much better scores and get more benefits from their classes as well. The discipline module in MarkersPro takes care of student discipline with ease. It helps to report and manage any incident that happened on the school premises. Also, it helps school administration to take corrective actions or disciplinary measures against the perpetrator. We have also taken the Individuals with Disabilities Educational Improvement Act (IDEA) into consideration in this module. 

 

Parental Involvement 

 

Students require a healthy atmosphere with a proper balance of teachers and parents. They prosper only when they receive steady support from both teachers and parents. MarkersPro takes care of this with some unique functionalities or modules like Communication, Announcements, Event & Holidays Calendar, and Billing. 

 

MarkersPro provides functionalities like Sent Emails and Sent Message allows teachers to get in contact with the parents in a simple hassle-free manner. Every parent with access to MarkersPro has a state-of-the-art dashboard at their dispense.

Also, the Billing module helps both school administration and parents to keep track of all the payments like Tuition, Admissions, Library, Cafeteria, and Transport fees effortlessly.
