Benefits Of Using FBISD Skyward
The biggest benefit of using the FBISD skyward is the ability to see your child’s grades and monitor his or her progress in school. You can also keep up with your child’s attendance, make sure he or she is attending classes, and receive notices if there are any problems.
In addition to seeing your grades, you can also see how much time was spent in each class. In some cases, this allows you to tell if your child is doing well in a class (high time) or not (low time).
You can also see how much time your student spends in physical education classes and receive notices if there are any problems.
The skyward system should make the process of getting information about your child’s school easier. It will be easier to find out what degree has been taken and what grades have been received.
