Students see their schedules and assignments and interact in a private social media-like system, safe from the public Internet. Parents see kids’ homework and grades. Teachers get course planning, attendance and assessment tools. Administrators receive school-wide analytics. Everyone gets what they need.
Because it connects to existing systems, classes in Edsby are pre-loaded with the right students and parents automatically. Attendance, an advanced grade book, course planning, parent communication and other features become a breeze, with no setup for teachers. And, we’ve specifically made it easy to learn.
Local policies drive regional educational standards. Because every region does things a little differently from the next, Edsby is completely customizable, even to districts’ unique grading and reporting.
Teachers that use free software and public social media can run afoul of CIPA, COPPA, FERPA, GDPR and other regulations. Edsby gives districts a single, protected “walled garden” for all communications between students, teachers and parents, so confidential information stays protected.
Comprehensive, all in one platform makes my daily tasks and responsibilities easier to manage and navigate!

As a computer programmer, I am very interested in software. Edsby looks like a great tool. I'm excited about finally having an online assessment and communication system.

Good communication tool to know what is going on in the classroom. I like the ability to see homework and notices of tests and quizzes. Some teachers post study guides, which is awesome.

I’m a parent with our son starting JK, and when that notification pops up on my phone that new evidence is posted for him, there are no words. Talk about a game changer!
