Online grades available to parents at your school?

We are a Prek-12 school and are debating the value of posting grades online=
for parents. I would like to hear from schools who have made the transiti=
on to posting online grades. If you are making your grades available to par=
ents could you list the pros and cons and if overall it has enhanced parent=
communication or if it has caused problems with parents who may tend to mi=
cromanage (as many people have feared)?

I have read through past discussions and found a few comments from schools =
who are posting grades online, but I would like to know how many schools ar=
e posting grades and about their experiences with online grading, both good=
and bad.

Best regards,
Linda
