MARCH 2013 - A new look for Monthly Mentions!
 
Coming Up This Month...
In March, the schools on quarter schedules will be wrapping up the 3rd quarter and getting ready to start 4th quarter.  Here are some FastDirect functions that may need to be addressed:
  • Closing input for 3rd mid-quarter reports  
  • Opening up teacher input for 3rd quarter report cards
  • Closing 3rd quarter report cards when teachers have finished importing grades
Is your school skilled in the High 5’s? 
We believe that there are 5 main functions within the FastDirect School Information System that each school should be practicing to achieve the greatest success in managing your school.  These 5 functions are:
  1. Attendance
  2. Messaging/SMS Text Notifications
  3. Online GradeBook Viewing
  4. Online ReportCard Viewing
  5. BulletinBoards/Calendars
