According to one of eSchool Media’s readers, Carolyn Grant, technology coordinator for Danville School District 118 in Illinois, Skyward’s Student Management System plays an integral role in its operations. "We use it for attendance, grading, scheduling, discipline, fee management, food service, transportation and everything else required by our state board of education," she says. "Skyward has fantastic, patient, helpful and knowledgeable programming and tech support staff…This is the fourth data management package our district has used since I began working in this capacity. This one is by far the best."

"We are honored to have our School Management System recognized as a top performer in the education technology market," says Scott Glinski, Skyward President. "Our goal is to provide a solution that exceeds our customers’ expectations and this award shows that we are right on track."

Skyward will be featured in eSchool Media’s 2012-2013 Readers’ Choice Awards Report, which will be available online and in its July/August 2012 print publications. The report will highlight 50 award-winning products and services and include comments from readers about why each entry deserves the award.
