Tom Hoffman
Project Manager
Schooltool
Dear Mr. Hoffman,
Since October, 2009, our school, Maryhill College, Inc., have been
evaluating SchoolTool and have found it most appropriate for our
needs. Now, we have decided to try and implement it in parallel with
our present system for the coming school year 2010–2011 beginning in
June. However, there is one major problem, we are unable to see how we
can fit the results of SchoolTool into the reports required by the
Department of Education.
Maryhill College, Inc. (maryhillcollege.edu.ph) is a small Parochial
School in Lucena City, Philippines. We offer preschool education (ages
4-6), Grade School (grades 1-6), High School (1st-4th year), and
College Courses (offering: nursing, education, accountancy, and
business administration). We have a total student population of about
2,300, the bulk of which is in the Basic Education Department
(Preschool, Grade School, and High School).
The Department of Education is requiring us to implement a
Computerized Student Information System (CSIS). We have been offered
several custom-built CSIS application, but this means tying up with
progammers whose business fortune, and therefore their support, is
fleeting at best. The commercially available CSIS applications cost
way too much for our very limited financial resources.
Our present system is composed of card files, paper files, and
computer documents and spreadsheets scattered throughout the registrar
and accounting departments. The school has only two IT personnel and
they basically do only hardware and software maintenance. Our
experience with Python and Zope Database programming is nil.
Attached please find samples for Report on Promotion and Student's
Permanent Record as required by the Department of Education at the end
of each school year.
We would very much like to use freedom software as a basis for this
mission critical application. We will be most grateful if you can
guide us on how we can accomplish the above mentioned reports through
SchoolTool.
Truly yours,
Dodi Malay E.C.E.
