[K12OSN] Student Record Software

[rmcdaniel at indata.us]

Let me also state that you should stay away from STI.  I have supported
and used the software for 6 years and can't believe that STI is the
most widly used software in schools.  It is poorly written, both the
application and the database backend.  I can't believe that our state,
Alabama, continues to force all of the schools in the state to use STI.
 Updates, bug fixes, and poor support plague the end users.  Take a 
look at Centre, http://www.miller-group.net.  It is open source and the
company also offers support.
