School Web Lockers
Web-based, Student and Teacher
Storage and Collaboration
• Why Use WEB LOCKERS?
• Teachers and Students need to
have access to computer-based
files from school and home. Disks
and Flash drives are prohibited
for students by the user policy.
• This program allows this access.
Students can save a file at school,
open it at home, work on it, save it
and reopen it at school.

• Also, if you choose to use it:
• Teachers have the ability to give and receive
homework in a simple and secure manner.
• Teachers have an electronic method to grade
homework (no more printing of homework).
• Teachers have a simple and secure way to
communicate with students via the web.
• Electronic Portfolio & Homework Archive can
be stored here.
