(Thank you TeenCastic for Layout idea!)

Sorry to say this, I know it’s true, but school is on it’s way. What is a better way to start the year, by making sure you are nice and organized? Then this is the program for you.

It’s called, Schoolhouse and it is by Logan Collins. This program is a must have for every student. It will definitely help you keep track of all those killer projects and homework assignments. For instance, let’s say your sitting in class with your laptop. Your teacher starts talking about a killer project. As you are writing notes, you can pop open Schoolhouse, and write down the date it is due. Schoolhouse is basically a School Version of iCal. Now let’s take a look at it, shall we?

Layout: The layout of Schoolhouse is very neat, and clean. You can easily change the view of the calender. To add an assignment, you just make sure you are selected on the day that something is due, then click the Assignment button. Then you just enter in the name of the assignment and whoolah! You can add files to it, and change the priority , and more.

Also, you can even add the emails of your partner, for easy contact through Schoolhouse. If you have an Assignment selected, you can click the Ask Instructor button, and that will open up Mail to a new email with the Subject, “Question about ______” (_____= Your Assignment Name). Easily through that, you can email your teacher with any questions you have regarding the assignment.

Another great feature about Schoolhouse is the ability to have it even keep track of your grades! Also, you can take notes in Schoolhouse and add little sticky notes with your To-Do’s.

Overall: Schoolhouse is an awesome application, made just for us students. The price is right, so you better check it out before the school year begins!
