Looking for a Access Template for School Database

[Guest]

I am automating a School for a Mission Project in Haiti. I am looking for a
template that would help speed my process up as I am going to Haiti soon.
Unlike schools in the US details about classes are not needed but simply
recording grades per grade card and advancement or not of School Grades each
school year. Since the children are sponsored by many we also need to keep
records to connect them to each sponsor (Just Number, Name, Address). We
also are keeping Parent & Sibling information and details about each student.
We will need multiple reports, 1 that is most important is for sponsors (a
student profile &/or Updates).

I am a new user of Access but have a background in programming & Query
Writing. Has anyone anything to help speed this development? This is "Not
for Profit" and I am giving my time to help the Mission. THANKS!

Dear Marilyn:

You could start by looking at templates available from Microsoft:

There is a template for classroom management...

And many more templates useful in a school!

Good luck!
