ICU Database

The Ultimate ICU List

The ICU Database is web-based so teachers can create, monitor, and manage missing assignments online anytime.

Stakeholder Notifications

When a teacher puts a student’s missing assignment on the ICU list, the student’s parents are automatically texted and emailed a notification of the missing assignment.

Focused Intervention

Students can be grouped together and viewed in “filters” so everyone can become involved in reviving student engagement and responsibility.
