Highline Public Schools is in the process of developing an online student information system (SIS) that will store all student data – grades, testing information, emergency contacts, and much more. The new system will allow teachers and administrators – and later, parents—quick access to information that will help them meet students’ educational needs.

Seahurst Elementary is the pilot site for the SIS this year. Currently, Seahurst student data is being moved from the current district database over to the new SIS. Staff from the department of technology services are being trained on the new system. Seahurst staff will be trained next.

Other elementary schools and middle schools will be moved to the new system starting in May. High schools will be converted during the 2008-09 school year.
