Happy Autumn!

soin as easy as pieDear Friends and Colleagues,

Happy Autumn!

We love Autumn here at SOIN headquarters, located in Northern New Jersey.  Autumn means the excitement of “Back to School” time, the aroma of fresh apple pie, and the beautiful colors of fall foliage.

Sincerely,
The SOIN Team
Schools-On-I-Net: quite simply, we put your school on the internet.
Easy as pie.”

Parent Teacher Conference Module

The PTC Module is an integrated Parent Teacher Conference Scheduling and Reservation System that was built from the ground up by our team.

Make parent teacher conference scheduling simple, easy, and fun.

Parents see only the teachers that their children have classes with – eliminating the need for parents to remember names and select from a full directory of staff members.
Parents love seeing available times, conflict alerts and the ability to request a phone call instead of an in-person appointment.

Engaging Parents Using the SOIN Grade Book and Assignments Module
krieger schechter day school

“Last year I used the Assignments section to place what was done in class and labeled it, “What We Did (WWD)“. This year I have expanded my labels to include,

  • What We Did (WWD)
  • Back 2 School (B2S)
  • Parents Please Sign (PPS) and
  • Special Parent Assignment (SPA)

This way, my Back 2 School syllabus did not need to be handed out, only to be left behind – parents and students can read it online anytime. Instead of sending home several copies of permission forms before one comes back, I can let parents know that it is coming home and remind them and the students that it needs to be returned.

When I want parents to review with the students the B2S Syllabus, or other things, the PSA category comes in handy. Note that all of these headings need to be initially set up in the grade book profile.

SOIN Tip:  Print Class Lists fom the Attendance Module


The need: Teachers wanted a quick and easy way to print out blank attendance sheets for all classes for a week at a time. Later, teachers let us know that having the same grid list of students names without the date would be extremely helpful too.

The result: SOIN has two links on the Attendance screen to make it easy for teachers to print their class lists with and without dates.


1. Teachers login
2. Click Academics
3. Click Attendance
4. Click on the link “View/Print blank sheet for all classes”(has dates) or “View/Print blank sheet for all classes without schedule”

Class List

Note: Scroll down to see all your classes listed in the PDF.

Need to make changes to your class roster?
-> Teachers use the My Classes link to assign and remove students to your classes or contact your SOIN administrator with your add/drop requests.


PS: This is a great way to verify your class rosters are accurate!

Why do we give parents school Google Apps Gmail accounts?
Schools-On-I-Net gives each parent, student, teacher and administrator to accomplish a truly personalized experience.

What is the benefit of giving parents school email accounts?
The benefits to the school are:

  1. The school can effectively set an email policy, where its responsibility is to send email to the official school email address
  2. It then becomes the parents’ responsibility to make sure that they setup their accounts to receive school email.
  3. SOIN Communications links help our users send targeted group email, without having to manage ever-changing email addresses or managing email groups (ie, by grade or class)
  4. The school no longer has to chase after parent to provide an email address or spend time in updating records when email addresses change or families enter or leave the school.
