assignments, test dates, resources and
photographs.

club and other group specific material,

Edline is a
comprehensive, K12-specific web hosting solution with a
proven track record of success, scalability and security.
- Every,
class, team, club, staff group and
parent group receives its own
website with no page or traffic
limits.
- Edline’s
unique “one click” publishing
protocol allows teachers and
administrators to publish reports
seamlessly from a variety of
sources, including most third party
student information and gradebook
systems.*
- Every
student, parent, teacher and
administrator receives a unique user
account for personalized security,
permissions and access (essential
for making private information
available at your school’s
website).

- The
public can view general school
information at any time without a
password, but private information
is visible only to visitors that
login with a screen name and
password.
- Email
alerts notify parents, students
and teachers of critical new
information available at your
school’s website (attendance,
grade reports, policies, etc.).
- Navigation
is quick. For example, each person's
unique “combined calendar”
displays shortcut links to
homework, test dates and events
from all of their class and
activity web pages, such as their
classes, teams, clubs, etc.
