UpGrade™ for professional elementary report cards!

UpGrade™ your elementary report card process to the professional level!


Take a look at what UpGrade™ can do:
  • Enter, edit, and print report cards—anywhere, any time
  • See student photos on-screen or print on report cards
  • Supports multiple classes, buildings, and grade levels per teacher as well as multiple report card formats for each student and for each grade, and multi-page report cards or multiple report cards per page
  • Supports specials, split-classes, and team-teaching
  • Users can use graphical, spreadsheet, or yearly data entry—whichever they prefer

Secure access to your cards from home or school

Teacher, building, semester, and District-level security helps maintain data integrity. We can use your existing Micosoft Active Diretory (ADS) network logins, LDAP, and local database security so there are no new passwords for your staff to remember

Uses existing teacher, student, class, and schedule information

We can link directly to most NCS Pearson SASIxp installations, and can automatically import data from NCS Pearson's CIMS product and most popular student management systems

Easily changeable and flexible to handle your toughest cards

Your staff can create standard, comments that can be selected, combined, and edited for highly-personalized comments and narratives for every student. Report card formats and data entry fields can easily be changed by District staff.

PDF Report Cards are previewable printed through standard browsers

For convenience, UpGrade can also print rosters, class lists, attendance, mailing labels, and more. You can also add optional barcodes, photos and other student information. UpGrade creates black and white or color PDF report cards by student and class.

Create digital CA-60 with a single click

UpGrade™also creates files that can readily be used for digital CA-60 or for easy retrieval from cold-storage, CD, DVD or other storage.

Customization

We specialize in the unique needs of K-12 districts. Our products are fully customizable to your preferences—colors, logos, text and data fields.

Training

Our products are very user-friendly, but training is always available. And, of course onsite, telephone, and remote support are always available too.

The Technical Stuff

Our products are installed in your district, on your server. They're browser-based so you just need a standard Internet browser to them—inside the District—or at home. They're built on industry-standard products, including Microsoft® Windows operating system, Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), and Microsoft-SQL Server database. And we work with you and your IT staff to integrate it into your existing website & network, so the installation is fast and easy.

Affordable pricing

We offer a one-time license fee as well as Annual Software Support and Maintenance service to ensure that you receive support, new features, and updates.
