Hello all,
Does anyone have a good student scheduling program then can=20
recommend? Here is our situation:
We currently use MacSchool as our scheduling software, which is no=20
longer supported after 2010. I am looking into new options, and=20
PowerSchool is very expensive and has a number of features we don't=20
need. Basically, our main student information system is a FileMaker=20
database with which we are all very happy. Each Spring, I export=20
student requests from FileMaker (student ID's and course numbers),=20
and import this information into MacSchool. There are two ladies=20
that then work with the MacSchool Scheduler to get all of the courses=20
assigned. Then I export the data from MacSchool back into FileMaker.
I am looking for a pretty user friendly scheduler that is not so=20
expensive (PowerSchool is over $10,000), and can easily import and=20
export data from excel or tab-delimited files.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
--=20
