About FreshGrade for Parents

FreshGrade for Parents gives you a virtual window into the classroom, providing visibility into your child’s academic progress. View your child’s full digital portfolio, make comments on posted learning moments, and collaborate with his or her teacher on how you can support your child’s learning.

This app is supplementary to the FreshGrade Teacher app, which allows the teacher to capture rich media artifacts of student learning as it happens — through pictures, videos, audio recordings, links, documents and anecdotal notes. Teachers can share student portfolios, and easily send reminders home.

FreshGrade creates meaningful communication and increases engagement between teachers, students and parents. Using the FreshGrade Parent App and FreshGrade Student App, students and parents have secure access to view, comment and upload additional artifacts to the student’s portfolio. The FreshGrade suite of applications features student portfolios, custom assessment tools, custom activities/assignments with curriculum alignment and classroom announcements.

FEATURES
• Get a window into the classroom through your child’s secure portfolio
• See what your child is learning through photos, videos, audio recordings, and notes
• Stay up-to-date with student-specific information and class-wide announcements
• No in-app purchases, third-party advertising or data sharing

Enabling Teachers
Teachers can communicate using digital portfolios on the go, recording artifacts of learning, and uploading them directly to student portfolios.

Empowering Students
Capturing activities inside and out of the classroom has never been easier, putting control of continuous learning in the hands of students and their stakeholders. Teachers have noticed that as a result of using FreshGrade, their students take a greater ownership of their learning.

Engaging Parents
FreshGrade enables stronger communication outside of the classroom, providing parents with greater awareness of their child’s development.

About FreshGrade
FreshGrade was founded in 2012 by a group of dedicated individuals who saw a better way to communicate a child's progress. FreshGrade is now used in over 70 countries worldwide and has users across all 50 states. In the largest school district using FreshGrade across their classrooms, 30% have replaced traditional report cards with FreshGrade.

The app cannot be trusted. The privacy policy link takes you to a non existent page. It only shows that the company has very poor QA process and/or developers do not care about the quality at all.

Love to see my kid what he is doing at school.

It's awesome

Y70%

The concept is very good and it is a great way to track my child's progress. That said, there needs to be a way to resize/zoom photos, or at least an option to download it. I shouldn't have to switch to the web version in order to do basic tasks. I'm a bit disappointed that there was a similar comment from 6 months ago and still there is no zooming in today's update.

by Y####:

I love this app for ease of connecting with my kid's everyday school activities. Gives me a chance to see what she is doing without being right there. When I encountered a technical issue, my questions were answered and the issue resolved in under 24 hours. Keep it up!

I tried to sign up to see my child's things, but I got redirected to a login page, which never gave me an option to create a new account. When my child tried to sign on, everything looked different to him, and he couldn't figure it out. May be a glitch in the program, but presently, I'm not impressed.

Forgets credentials often. This app is practically useless. Speaking with the developer doesn't help, the last update re introduced the bug. My kids school insists I use this stupid app it's not like the developers need to compete against others. I can only imagine how much money they slurp up from the school system for this polished turd.

by Y####:

Pictures should be zoomable (rather than click to make one size larger). I find I need to look at them on computer to see them large enough to see/read detail. Also should have 'like' option for posts.

V70%
by V####:

I like that I can post stuff and my don work but I don't like that I can't put a pic up or do anything. Please let me know if teacher has to put pic on profile or if I can.

Waiting 6 days for a reply email with password. Tried several times to log on again and again and also requesting new password over and over but still no reply. Really hope I'm not missing out on my daughter's information. Unhappy parent.

Opening an image in the zoom mode doesn't preserve the original aspect ratio. Who does your​ QA?

This app is great too for access your kid's grade at school. The app load very slow the first time. Looks like lock up but if you give it 30 seconds then it will move on. This happened on but my Samsung and my wife's iPhone 6.

Older version was very good, new one doesn't work at all,very buggy

Its great if you only want to open the app once. Have to Uninstall and reinstall to get it to load any content. Not worth the trouble.

Thanks to this app, seeing my child at work learning is easy and pleasurable.

D70%
by D####:

The inability to resize the text and photos makes it maddening to try and read the teacher's reports on my phone. So I just installed this app on my tablet and it's even worse because it switches to 2 column mode and makes the text even smaller. For the love of God at least let us resize stuff so it's easier to read!

G70%
by G####:

App is functional and so far glitch free. However improvements that would improve usability are: Ability to have video rotate so can watch in landscape. Volume is very low. Also i am a strong believer in privacy for children and am of the opinion that group posts should be drm content protected. I certainly don't want other parents posting a class photo on their fb account or similar social media. Other than that very happy.

Why can't we save the pictures of our children

by D####:

The main aspect of the app is the portfolio, but it has a seemingly random sort order which makes it very hard to use (get an alert? Who knows what item it refers to). As well, no pull to refresh (and you can't forget to refresh as it is never done automatically). Fortunately I don't need to re-enter credentials all the time like it seems the iOS app requires.

So grateful for such awesome technology, love being connected to my child's education

FreshGrade keeps me linked to my sons learning on a daily basis. I love the connectivity I have with both my son and his teacher about his progress!

Constantly forgets my login, forcing me to re enter my parent code every time. Not worth the time to mess around with.
