Hi,

Open Admin for Schools is a freely available web based school administration 
program.

It now includes an online gradebook, and allows parent viewing of attendance, 
report cards, and gradebook, if desired.

This is being developed by both the Battlefords School Division and the North 
West Catholic School Division in Saskatchewan, Canada

Open Admin for Schools 1.80 is now available for download from:

http://richtech.ca/openadmin

It contains updates including:
a) complete scripting rewrite to support a single configuration file per 
school.

b) new class enrollment journal system to track class enrollments and 
withdrawals.

c) many updates to the Saskatchewan SDS scripts including a new debug mode, and 
new class enrollment update script and improvements in the query functions.

d) early alpha support for the postgreSQL database as an alternative to MySQL. 
(with the assistance of David Bandel)

e) Gradebook updates to support single zip class export, subgroups for separate 
term grades, other fixes.

f) Other fixes and improvements as outlined in the change log on the OA page.
