[seul-edu] Intro and Help please

[Mike Norton <mike@sierrapinesacademy.org>]

Hello.

My name is Mike Norton and I am the Administrator for a public charter 
school called Sierra Pines Academy.

I love Linux and im working on setting our school up to use all linux 
servers for all of its admin work.  This brings me to the need for 
help.

I am desperately needing a package that will allow us to input grades 
and produce report cards and transcripts.  This is something that 
will be school wide rather than teacher centric.  

We also need a good system for the teachers to post assignments and 
homework so parents can be involved.  And what would be wonderfull 
is if these two systems would work together.  BUT the first one is 
a MUST have.  I could write one using php and MySQL but I simply 
do not have the time.

Does anyone out there know of something we can use?

Thanks in advance.
