Howard County school officials have spent $803,000 implementing the Chancery Student Management System, which tracks student data reports, such as attendance and grades. Parents and data entry clerks have complained about the software?s accuracy and slowness, but school officials say transcripts sent out last fall to colleges and universities produced no errors.
Recently, school officials decided to continue ironing out kinks in the software while allowing schools to use another software to keep track of local student reports. But they noted that the SMS would remain the official student record.
