The Problem

Running a school shouldn't mean
managing fifteen spreadsheets.

Most small schools in the Caribbean track everything manually. Here is what that actually costs you every day.

📋
Attendance in spreadsheets
Every morning someone fills a Google Sheet. Finding who was absent last Tuesday takes ten minutes of searching through tabs.
SchoolMS marks attendance in seconds
📞
Parents calling all day
"What is my child's grade?" "Did they attend today?" "How much do I owe?" — the same questions, every single day, all day long.
Parents check it themselves, online
😤
Report cards take days
Teachers type into Word, someone collects 20 different files, reformats them all, then prints. One mistake means starting over entirely.
Professional report cards in one click
💸
Chasing fees by hand
Paper invoices, WhatsApp reminders, no clear picture of who still owes anything until you dig through notebooks at month-end.
Real-time fee dashboard, instant receipts
🧮
Payroll is a nightmare
Manual salary calculations, separate NIB spreadsheets, no payslips. Month-end consumes the accountant for an entire day.
Automated payroll with NIB, payslip PDFs
🔄
Paying forever for cloud tools
$100–200 per month that never stops. Cancel and you instantly lose access to every student record you ever built. The price goes up every year.
One payment. Your data stays yours. Always.

What Schools Say

Trusted by administrators
across the Caribbean.

★★★★★

"We were spending $180 per month on three separate tools that still did not talk to each other. SchoolMS replaced all of them. We paid $1,000 once and have not paid anything since."

School Administrator · Belize
★★★★★

"Payroll used to take my accountant a full day every month — now it takes 20 minutes. NIB contributions are automatic, payslips print in one click. It paid for itself in the first month."

CR
Carlos R.
Finance Manager · Honduras
★★★★★

"Parents stopped calling the office to ask about grades and fees — they just check it themselves. Staff phone calls dropped by more than half in the first week."

FAQ

Questions we get asked most.

Does SchoolMS work without internet? +
Yes. After installation, the app runs completely offline. Staff access it through your local Wi-Fi network — no internet connection required after the initial download.
Is there a monthly fee or renewal cost? +
No. Pay once and own that version forever. There are no monthly fees, no per-student charges, and no renewal costs. Future major versions may be available at a discounted upgrade price.
How many students can I add? +
Unlimited students in all plans. Staff account limits only apply to login accounts — teachers, accountants, front desk staff — not to student records.
Can staff and parents access it from home? +
Yes — using a Cloudflare Tunnel (free). A setup script included with SchoolMS configures everything automatically and gives your system a real HTTPS URL accessible from anywhere in the world.
Can I import my existing student data? +
Yes. The Import Data page accepts any CSV file exported from Excel. The system auto-detects your column names and handles common variants like "first name", "firstname", "Mother-Name", and more.
What countries is SchoolMS available in? +
SchoolMS is used by schools across the Caribbean and Central America — Bahamas, Belize, Honduras, Guatemala, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Dominican Republic, and more. It works on any Windows computer worldwide.
Can I get a refund if it does not work? +
If SchoolMS cannot be installed or run on your computer within 14 days of purchase, contact us for a full refund — no questions asked. We will try to resolve the issue remotely first.
What is new in version 2.6? +
A fully self-contained installer that bundles its own private copy of Python and every dependency — no separate Python install and no internet connection needed to set up. Restored and hardened the license activation system. Version 2.5 introduced: bulk CSV import for students and staff, a built-in AI Assistant powered by Claude, a Walk-in Kiosk module for tablet self-service intake, in-app SMTP email setup, a first-time setup guide, and desktop shortcut auto-creation on install.
