No matter how many students a school or district has, one thing
remains the same--the vital importance of tracking student attendance,
grades, standardized test scores, school or district transfers, and
more. Administrators, teachers, students, and parents all depend on a
reliable Student Information System (SIS) to give accurate reports and
updates.

And the U.S Department of Education's announcement that it will
require schools to use a uniform method to calculate graduation and
dropout rates highlights the need for easy-to-use products that can be
seamlessly installed and quickly learned.

With the generous support of Pearson School Systems, we've compiled
stories from the eSchool News archives, as well as some best practices
and additional resources to help your school staff make the most
informed decision as possible when considering SIS implementation.
