I am really enjoying using Everest. The daily class attendance is a great electronic way for me to track and monitor attendance whilst the gradebook is saving me tons of paper and time, as I can enter my formative assessments on the spot, from my iPad. This is exactly the tool that I needed.

Using Everest our teachers find it easy to take registration throughout the entire school site. The interface is well designed and intuitive allowing all levels of user easy access to information. Setting assignments is simple yet flexible enough to meet the needs of our teachers and it allows parents and students easy access to not just assignments but behavior, attendance and grades. Everest overcomes most of the challenges that our previous application was unable to achieve.

When Covid-19 hit, we were in the middle of our school holidays and were quickly faced with the situation of converting our bricks and mortar school into an online school. This posed many challenges for all members of the community. Everest provided us with an effective means to communicate with students and parents, issue work, and continue our reporting and assessment cycle. Everest has an easy to use interface which means that students and parents can easily find the work that is required of them and receive direct communications from their teachers.

You can see everything about a student in one place. I put all my subject resources and lesson plans into it so I can share with my classes. It’s great for sharing homework with students and parents.

The homework module has enabled teachers to collect, mark, feedback, and return student work. As many of our teachers were operating in many different countries and time zones, this allowed us to work effectively from where they were located. Despite being away from the school for a number of weeks, we are still able to collate student grades and create reports in order to ensure learning is taking place.

Since the school’s been closed I’ve been joining live lessons, via Everest, so my days have been as near to normal as they can be! I’ve also been able to hand in my work and get feedback from my teachers so my homework is the best it can be. Handing in work is very quick and easy to do.

Everest Homework Tracking has not only saved me from ‘death by email’ it allows me to see who handed in what, when and associated comments from me my students and their parents. This has greatly assisted me in providing focused feedback and planning future lessons effectively at this difficult time. An invaluable tool.

Everest makes it so easy to do the things that seem to take longer in SIMS.
I like that I can use it on my tablet – it’s got an up-to-date look about it.
I use it to communicate with parents – it’s easy.

As a parent of twin boys tracking homework and classes was a nightmare. The Everest software has alleviated the stress and constant asking my boys “Do you have any homework?” I find the phone app gives me instant access to these activities in a fast and efficient way. It also allows me to check on attendance, if they are late to classes, as well as looking at their merits.
