What Users Love About the App

“As a teacher, I find ParentLocker to be fairly easy to use for storing student grades, and for retrieving student contact information. The software also offers families to login and access other communication avenues, such as sighing up for Covid Assurance testing.”

“From creating a form to getting the link-up on our website to getting submitted forms into our database, Parent Locker has made the admissions process so easy. The software seems very intuitive and easy to use.”

“ParentLocker is a superb Student Information System. It has transformed the ability for us to function as a school with tracking attendance, student demographic information, report cards, communication with parents and so much more.”

“ParentLocker centralized all of our admissions, registration, student information, paperwork and attendance need into one convenient and easy to use program. We love the Parent-Teacher (P/T) Conference module as well as the beautiful Progress Report and Report Card features. The easy to use school-wide email and text message features make sending information and is very user friendly.”

“Parent Locker understood the needs of our particular school. Although many of the features we needed were already anticipated, the team at Parent Locker was quick to customize our needs. The greatest thing about Parent Locker is the ease of use.”

What Users Dislike About the App

“I have two frustrations when using ParentLocker as a grade book. The first issue is that when I open the gradebook, it doesn’t always open to the current term. I wish it had a default to open to the term last used. Secondly, I haven’t found a way to copy assignments, either within the class or across my classes.”

“There are a couple of things we are currently unable to generate in a data report – for example, we can’t generate a report of students who have left the school so attrition trends are still a little challenging to document in the database.”

“The App is very basic. I know they are working on this, but currently, from a functional standpoint, we need to access from a phone through a browser which makes it a challenge on a phone.”

“Parent Locker has recently added a lot of features we were using other platforms to do for us, thus not integrated into one system. They have been slow to add such features but are realizing that schools need many different databases to “talk” to each other for better management of student’s information.”

“I just wish we could use the whole suite. We are tied to the software our district requires so switching to Parent Locker as our SIS isn’t an option at this time. If we are given the opportunity I would switch in an instant.”
