| Attendance | The attendance grid tracks absences and tardies, and lets teachers specify non-class days and choose which weekdays to display. | Attendance types can be customized and recorded daily or by period, with support for standard, cyclical and weekly schedules. |
| Gradebook | The gradebook grid shows students, assignments, scores, and grades for the current term, and grades recompute automatically when data changes. | Teachers can use points, percentages, letter grades, pass/fail, check-style and custom grading scales with weighted assignment types. |
| Privacy | The privacy policy says web app use does not collect data, and names and student information are stored only in users' classes. | ThinkWave says it does not sell student or other user data to third parties. |
