GO School keeps Gospel Outreach Olympia families and staff on the same page, every school day. Parents and guardians see the day that matters to them: which classes each child has, what homework is due, and any note from a teacher. Tick homework off as it gets done. Get a heads up before a quiz or test. Teachers get their own teaching schedule, class rosters, attendance, and a gradebook, plus a simple way to post homework and send a note home. Notes to families are reviewed by the principal before they go out. The principal sees the whole school: one queue for approving homework, announcements, and notes, plus rosters, families, staff accounts, and the master schedule. FOR FAMILIES - Every child's daily schedule in one place - Homework with due dates and a checklist - Announcements pinned to the top of the day - Notes with your child's teachers - A heads up before quizzes and tests FOR TEACHERS - Your teaching schedule, by day or by week - Class rosters and attendance - Gradebook, with the option to share work with parents - Post homework, including work that repeats weekly - Ask for a substitute and see who can cover FOR THE OFFICE - One approval queue for homework, announcements, and notes - Students, families, and staff accounts - The full school schedule with rooms and teachers - A daily copy and printing list for the front desk GO School is private to our school.

The call
