Release Notes

Staying connected to your child's progress just got easier.

We know how hard it can be to stay on top of everything happening at school—especially when you're juggling multiple kids or a busy schedule. That's why we built the Weekly Parent Digest.

Every week, parents now receive a personalized email summarizing their children's grades, attendance, and any updates from teachers. If you have multiple students enrolled, everything is combined into one easy-to-read email—no more logging in to check each child separately.

This is one of the most-requested features from our parent community, and we're excited to finally ship it.

Fixes and Improvements¶

• Improved email system to support different user types

Gradebook just got 10x faster.

If you've been frustrated by how slow gradebook entry could feel, we hear you. Every time you entered a grade, the system was making a separate save operation. For a class of 30 students, that meant 30 individual saves. It added up fast.

We rebuilt the entire save system from the ground up. Now, all your changes save in a single operation—whether you're updating 5 grades or 50. Teachers are reporting that gradebook entry feels instant now, even on slower connections.

We also added smart change tracking, so you'll get a warning if you try to leave the page with unsaved work. No more lost progress.

Fixes and Improvements¶

• Added navigation protection to prevent accidental data loss
• Improved change detection with visual indicators

We built a completely free transcript builder for homeschool families.

Creating official-looking transcripts shouldn't require expensive software or graphic design skills. We wanted homeschool parents to have the same professional tools that traditional schools use—without the price tag.

Now you can build beautiful, official transcripts for up to 3 students completely free. The system automatically calculates GPAs, tracks credits, and formats everything according to standard educational requirements. When you're ready, export to PDF and send it to colleges, scholarship programs, or anyone else who needs it.

This is our way of supporting the homeschool community. No credit card required, no strings attached.

Fixes and Improvements¶

• Simplified the onboarding process for new homeschool families

The Free Transcript Builder is here—and it's completely free.

We're thrilled to announce the arrival of NavEd's Free Transcript Builder—a powerful new tool that puts professional transcript creation directly in your hands, no technical skills required.

Create beautiful, professional transcripts for homeschooled students or transfer records with our intuitive builder. Add courses, input grades, and watch your student's academic profile come to life. Our system automatically computes weighted GPA as you add courses, with smooth animated updates so you can see the impact of each grade in real-time.

Build your transcript, enter your email, and we'll generate a polished PDF ready to share with colleges, employers, or educational institutions. No downloads, no formatting headaches—just instant, professional results.

Fixes and Improvements¶

• Added course management with add, edit, and delete functionality
• One-click PDF delivery via email
• Upgraded error pages and attendance dashboard with modern design

Faster navigation and improved performance.

We've made the NavEd interface snappier, especially if you navigate frequently. The sidebar now renders faster and responds more smoothly on all devices—whether you're on a desktop, tablet, or mobile device.

Teachers and admins managing multiple classes or grades should notice the most improvement when switching between subjects, students, and reports.

Fixes and Improvements¶

• Optimized sidebar layout for better responsiveness
• Improved page load times throughout the app

We're introducing flexible pricing that grows with your school.

Not every school needs every feature—and you shouldn't have to pay for what you don't use. That's why we built a feature gating system with three subscription tiers: Standard, Premium, and Enterprise.

Standard ($2.50/student/month) covers essential school management. Premium ($5/student/month) adds advanced analytics and gradebook features. Enterprise ($8/student/month) gives you everything, including API access and custom integrations.

Your first 5 students are always free, no matter which plan you choose. And if you're one of our legacy schools, you're grandfathered into all features at no cost—our thank you for being early believers.

The sidebar now dynamically shows only the features available in your plan, so there's no confusion about what you can use.

Fixes and Improvements¶

• Added 22 cataloged features across 6 categories (People, Academic, Administrative, Reporting, Communication, Integrations)
