Briefs: New record system in use

Stevenson High School plans to send its current student records management system, which has been used for 15 years, to the digital graveyard and replace it next school year with Inifite Campus student management software system that offers new features. The move will reduce work for the district's teachers by reducing the amount of data entry required, said Director of Information Services Douglas Kahler. The new system also will provide a single, easy-to-use platform for students and parents to view and share information with each other, teachers and the Stevenson community.
