Student progress tracking app for teachers and parents
EduTrack was developed for a network of 15 charter schools facing challenges with parent engagement and student performance monitoring. The traditional paper-based reporting system created delays in communication, resulting in parents only learning about issues during quarterly parent-teacher conferences. The schools needed a digital solution to provide real-time updates on student progress, behavior, and academic performance. We developed a comprehensive mobile application with a web-based admin portal that enables teachers to log student activities, assessments, and behavior incidents in real-time. Parents receive immediate notifications about important events and can track their child's progress through intuitive dashboards. The system integrates with existing student information systems to reduce administrative workload while providing valuable analytics for school administrators to identify trends and intervention opportunities.
The network of charter schools faced several critical challenges:
We developed EduTrack, a comprehensive mobile and web solution designed specifically to address the communication and tracking challenges faced by the school network. Our approach included:
We conducted extensive interviews with administrators, teachers, and parents to understand the specific pain points and requirements. This research guided our development of intuitive interfaces tailored to each user group.
We built a React Native mobile application for parents and students, with a responsive web dashboard for teachers and administrators. The system uses Firebase for real-time updates and MongoDB for data persistence, with Node.js backend services to handle business logic and integrations.
We implemented a phased rollout approach, starting with three pilot schools before expanding to the entire network. This allowed us to gather feedback and make improvements before the full deployment.
This diagram illustrates the architecture and component relationships of the EduTrack system. It shows how different parts of the application interact to provide a comprehensive solution for our client's needs.
The implementation of EduTrack across the charter school network has yielded significant improvements in student performance and parent engagement:
The app has been particularly effective in identifying at-risk students earlier, allowing for timely interventions that have reduced failure rates across core subjects. Administrative time spent on progress reporting has decreased by over 60%, allowing teachers to focus more on instruction and personalized student support.
