Edsby

What is Edsby?

Edsby will provide a way for parents and guardians to receive school updates, calendar events, view student progress and much more. It will help simplify communication among and between teachers, students and parents. For each of your children – even if they go to different schools – you’ll see your child(s) classes, teachers and school information. 

Edsby is brand new to GSSD and this is year one of a multi-year implementation plan. Our teachers are learning how to use the many features of Edsby including the assessment.  Therefore, teacher use of Edsby may differ so you may find information regarding class activities for one child, but not the other. More features will become available later this Fall. We look forward to the many benefits Edsby will provide. 
You will receive more information from your child's school when the parents accounts are ready. If you already have an account set up login to Edsby here
