Cimple is proud to announce its newest addition to the Cimple line of products: The Electronic School. Here parents, students, teachers, administrators, counselors, and staff can safely and securely view student information through the Internet. Take a test drive now!
Internet service providers are giving out free computers, and in some districts, a WebTV is in the budget for every household. Why? Because the Internet is changing the way that people will communicate forever.
Most schools today are in the Dark Ages, providing information to parents about their child's progress a few times a year. How long do you think it will be before parents, with Internet access, will want to know why they can't view their child's information (schedule, attendance, grades, etc.) on a day-to-day basis using the web?
Is your school ready to provide parents with the day-to-day information they will demand in the new millennium? Getting parents involved in their child's day-to-day activities will improve their education.
The Electronic School is a Cimple 2000 Secure Internet Product (SIP) that allows parents to view their child's information from home or from work using the Internet.
 It can also act as a communication portal for parents, students, teachers, counselors, and administrators using email.
The Cimple 2000 Electronic School is installed on the district's web server*. It is that easy. A button then appears on the district's home page. When a parent or student connects from home, work, or school using a web browser, they are authenticated with a Digital Certificate, Smart Card, or a UserID and Password (depending on the security option installed). Once authenticated, parents and students are restricted to viewing their own information only. The Electronic School is fully compatible with the leading web browsers (IE, Netscape, and WebTV), providing users with a variety of options to access their information.
Certainly! The district does not have to use Cimple's Student Information System. The Electronic School has a Data Conversion Product (DCP) that can be customized to work with the district's current system.
Not a problem! Cimple can help your district set up its own web server or assist your school in finding a suitable Internet service provider with web hosting capabilities*. Either way, Cimple will help deliver your students' information to their parents through the web.
