Why You Should Submit High School Assignments Online

Why You Should Submit High School Assignments Online

Some Seton families by circumstance or choice are not internet users. The option to mail in work for grading is specifically for them. For those families who can submit work electronically, however, there are several benefits for the family and Seton:

1. Grading electronically-submitted work is faster and easier for graders than grading mailed-in work. The grading department instantly receives the submission, and it is immediately placed in the grading queue. The more families submit work electronically, the faster the grading turnaround times are for everyone.

2. When students or parents have questions concerning grading, an academic counselor can instantly pull up the assignment in question and see the grader's comments. Seton does not scan or keep copies of mailed-in assignments. As a consequence, the family needs to email the academic counselor a scanned copy of mailed-in work before we can address any grading concerns. This can cause delays since the counselor cannot instantly view the submission and grading.

3. We are not able to keep copies of mailed-in work, so the copy we send back when the work is mailed in is the only copy of that graded work available. If the original, graded assignments is lost at your house or, in rare cases, in the mail back to you, there is no way to recover that work. This is not a problem with electronically submitted work which is permanently saved in our system.
