[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course you can see the grades.  Make an appointment for a conference with the teacher after school, and you can see it.

If you're looking for real-time updates and unrestricted at home access to the teacher's grade book, that doesn't happen with the elementary school grade book system.[/quote]

I am really getting sick of parents coming here and saying "just go make a conference with a teacher."   Parents should NOT have to leave work early or get childcare to see their kids grades and actually get some info on their kids.  There needs to be better communication and it shouldn't only be at a parent's request.  [/quote]

I made the post you're quoting and I'm a parent AND a teacher.  There is no on line gradebook that allows a remote user like a parent to log in and solely see their child's grades in elementary school.  So, for a parent who wants this access, the option is to come to the school and see it there.  That is the current available solution.  If you are advocating for something else, then by all means go for it, but the option you want (remote access to the gradebook with only your child's grades visible) is not available right now in elementary school.

I'm sorry a parent might have to leave work early.  That's life.  I would have to do the same to meet with my child's teachers.  I am getting really sick of parents complaining that teachers don't bend over backwards to communicate, yet are unwilling themselves to do any more than pop on DCUM and complain.  Teachers can't read your mind.  If you want something, ask for it.  What you think is obvious is not necessarily obvious to everyone else.[/quote]
