Picture this: It's Sunday evening. Instead of digging through PowerSchool notifications, Canvas updates, and school announcements, you open one dashboard. In seconds, you see your son's current GPA (3.7 unweighted, 4.4 weighted), notice his AP French grade dropped to a B, and spot that Macbeth essay due in 3 days. No searching. No stress. Just clarity.

πŸ’‘ Transform 100+ school emails into one clear dashboard. See grades, assignments, and GPA in real-timeβ€”automatically. Try Solyo free for 30 days β†’

This is the reality for thousands of parents who've transformed their email chaos into an intelligent school dashboard.

The Email Avalanche: PowerSchool, Canvas, and Everything Else​

If your child attends a modern school, you're drowning in automated emails:

  • PowerSchool: Grade posted, assignment missing, attendance update
  • Canvas: New announcement, assignment due, grade updated
  • School emails: Schedule changes, events, urgent notices
  • Teacher messages: Individual feedback, class updates, concerns

For active students, this means 20+ emails per day. That's 600 emails per month, scattered across multiple platforms, with critical information buried everywhere.

What You're Actually Missing in the Chaos​

While managing this flood, parents miss the insights that matter:

Grade Patterns

  • Is your child consistently scoring lower on essays than tests?
  • Are certain subjects trending down while others improve?
  • Do grades dip after specific types of assignments?

Assignment Intelligence

  • Which classes consistently assign weekend homework?
  • Are major projects clustering around the same dates?
  • How many days notice do teachers typically give?

GPA Impact

  • Which class improvement would boost GPA the most?
  • How do weighted vs. unweighted calculations affect class rank?
  • What's the real-time impact of that latest test score?

Real Parents, Real Results​

"I can finally see the story behind the grades. When I noticed my daughter's English grade dropped after participation scores, we worked on class engagement. Her grade went from B- to A in six weeks." - Rachel M., mother of a junior

"The GPA impact feature changed everything. My son could see that improving his AP French from B to A would boost his weighted GPA by 0.1 points. That motivation was priceless." - James K., father of two

"No more Sunday night panic. I check the dashboard for 30 seconds each morning and know exactly what's happening with both kids' education." - Linda S., working mother

The Power of Seeing Everything​

When Jason's parents check his dashboard, they don't just see grades – they see opportunities:

  • Immediate: Essay due in 3 days needs attention
  • Strategic: Improving AP French has highest GPA impact
  • Trending: 4-point drop in participation needs discussion
  • Planning: Multiple events next Tuesday require coordination

This isn't data overload – it's actionable intelligence presented clearly.
