Principal Viewer Training
The Principal Viewer program was designed to allow school administrative staff such as Principals, AP’s, counselors, dept. heads, activity directors and coaches the ability to monitor up-to-the minute student progress without classroom interruption.
Administrators have instant, real-time access to the Pinnacle database and can query, manage, and report on individual grading, attendance and discipline data in real time as they need it.
Click the Principal Viewer button from the launch pagehttps://gb.dadeschools.net
