Gradelink: Student Information System for Schools

Gradelink is a student information system (SIS) designed to help schools manage their administrative and academic tasks without technology getting in the way. The platform presents itself as an easy-to-use tool that allows educational institutions to save time, improve enrollment, and fulfill their mission. According to information on its site, it has been serving schools for 23 years, with more than 2,100 institutions and 400,000 users.

Integrated Functions for School Management

The system integrates management, teaching, and learning tools. Key features include lesson planning, gradebooks, standards tracking, and report cards, all working together seamlessly. The platform allows you to manage enrollment, grades, and attendance in a single system. It also includes automatic standards tracking, automatic grade monitoring alerts for parents or students when grades drop, sports eligibility reports so coaches can encourage their players to stay on track, and custom report cards for each school ready in three steps. It also allows you to start a new term or school year in just minutes and offers info box previews throughout the system for instant cross-referencing.

Transition, Training, and Support

Gradelink offers a free transition assistance program: according to the company, the switch is completed in about 10 business days. The process includes the school sending existing data, customized account setup, and personalized staff training. Most of the initial setup is handled by Gradelink on the administrative side, not by teachers. Unlimited personalized support via phone and email is included at no additional cost, and is available even in Spanish and Chinese. Training is also offered for all staff members and 24/7 access to a help site with an extensive library of how-to articles and videos.

User Profiles and International Reach

The platform is designed for different roles within the educational community: administration, admissions, business office, parents or students, diocese and districts, teachers, and tech directors. The site mentions international assistance and a specific section for diocese and districts. Additionally, the company offers school websites designed to boost enrollment, easy to manage, and backed by professional support.

Recognition and Customer Reviews

Gradelink presents itself as one of the highest-rated SISs on the market, according to its own claim. The site collects user testimonials that highlight ease of use, teacher efficiency, parent communication, and quality of customer service. Among the comments, a user with over ten years of experience says she will continue to recommend it; a music instructor recommends it for a stress-free life; and an assistant principal values that it is an all-in-one program that brings attendance, lunch count, IEP, and student files together in one place.
