Hi Preston,<br />
<br />
OpenAdmin is a really good up to date SIS system: <a href="http://richtech.ca/openadmin/">http://richtech.ca/openadmin/</a> . If I understand you correctly, you are just looking for a grade book though, and do not want a full-blown Student Information System. So the other option I would recommend is Moodle. Moode can do both exporting and importing of grades with CSV or XML files. I have never been completely satisfied with the import/export utility, but it does do the job.

Our school just moved over to a web-based grading program called Gradelink. Check them out at <a href="http://www.gradelink.com">www.gradelink.com</a>. Parents can also enable alerts when students get certain grades. It's web-based. It has worked really well in our school. One thing that's nice is that you can give the IT guys a copy of your current report card, and they will create the template for you, so that you don't have to change the way your report card looks. It's not free though.

Nope - I wish I could say I found the winner. We are trying edu20 - but the teachers are complaining a bit about a lot of clicks to get assignments in. It also is very oriented toward self organizing as opposed to admin driven (which has plenty of issues). But so far it is OK and the design and look seems clear and clean. I'm automating some stuff with python (see <a href="http://www.edu20.org/community_forum/thread?thread=19540">http://www.edu20.org/community_forum/thread?thread=19540</a>)<br />

Preston,<br />
Any luck with this? I also like engrade but want to keep setup work to a bare minimum which means import class lists from a .txt, .xls or .csv. I don't think engrade does this..<br />
<br />
In fact, i know it is asking a lot, but I'd want to be able to import the assessment calendar for all classes as well. Asking staff to re-enter data is not an option<br />
<br />

<br />
Love to know if you found one Preston

Preston, I have used <a href="http://www.engrade.com">www.engrade.com</a> for two semesters now and am quite impressed - especially since it is free. There are a couple of things I wished they did better, but all in all, it does a great job of allowing students (and parents) view grades. Students can also combine their classes into one login code. Pretty cool. Hope this helps.<br />

We have a site license to the desktop application version of Easy Grade Pro and is what we are using currently.<br />
<br />
To get any sort of feature enhancement over that version in an online version you need to bundle it with Edline, and to get decent data import/export you need to add on their "live link" package. This adds up to a hefty annual subscription.<br />
