The Test Scores/Certificates app has been a fantastic addition to the QuickSchools app store. It’s a powerful app that’s great for high schools, language schools, higher education, and other institutions that need to track standardized test scores for students. Let’s take a look at the app’s awesome system for managing all those score reports.
First, admins can install the app from the app store. During installation, settings can be configured. It is possible to allow some, any, or all teachers to enter scores, and admins can chose if students can view their own scores in their Student Portal.
Several schools that use the awesome QuickSchools Attendance module had requested an at-a-glance visual of attendance for all students. The app developers heard your ideas, and now we have a great app to show students attendance for each day. Let’s take a look at this awesome Attendance Snapshot app!
The app is available in the App Store “School Apps section”. Admins can configure who has access to the app, since it shows attendance data for all students in the school regardless of class or grade-level.
The app’s display is structured like a spreadsheet and supports up to 10 scheduled periods from daily, subject-based, period-based, and rotating attendance. Before the day starts, the attendance is blank…
…but as the day continues, it fills up with the attendance information.Read More »

Admins can try Advanced Subject Setup and install it from the App Store. It can be configured to allow certain users access to the additional menus, too.

The Lunchroom app is one of our most popular apps, as it’s a fantastic way to track student lunches and lunch payments. Separate from the Fee Tracking module, Lunchroom is tailored to the needs of a school cafeteria.
Lunchroom supports tracking different lunches and extra items, entering fees based on lunch items, and resetting the balance at the end of semester or rolling it over to the next term. After parents send the school a payment for lunchroom purchases, the payment can be added directly to the student’s record, and a complete history is also visible from within the app.
Main lunch offerings can be configured in one of the menus and then quickly added to the student’s record.Read More »
