According to Mr. Fred Reynolds, Plus Portals will be replaced with Education Edge by the next school year. Education Edge is a grading system produced by BlackBaud, a popular education administration software that universally hosts gradebooks, fundraising management, finance management and more.

  One of the major problems that was seen in Plus Portals that is corrected by the new software is heading alignment in teachers’ gradebooks. More benefits include easier navigation throughout the site, less site clutter, more space for students’ grades, and a more user-friendly interface. However, there are still some more decisions to make for the rest of the design.

  Teachers and staff will have training at the end of this school year in preparation for the 2014-2015 school year.
