Discovery Software has over 23 years experience serving the K-12 education industry. Below are some of the K-12 education projects we have worked on over the past two decades.
Mobile Student Information Systems
Principalm provides mobile access to school and student information, giving educators the power, flexibility, and control to manage their data using a Palm® or Windows Mobile handheld. From any location, administrators can ensure student and school safety, contact parents in emergencies, identify students on- or off-campus, and monitor student attendance and performance. No longer are educators tied to their desktop computers. The wealth of information available at their fingertips allows them to focus on what's important the student.
Gradebooks
Our extensive gradebook design and development experience is well known throughout the K-12 education market. One example is InteGrade Pro, developed during our longstanding relationship with Pearson Digital Learning and its predecessors: NCS, McGraw-Hill School Systems, CTB/McGraw-Hill and Columbia Computing.
InteGrade Pro is a complete online/offline gradebook that runs on both Macintosh and Windows platforms. It's one of the most versatile gradebooks on the market and had been used by hundreds of thousands of teachers.
