In Discovering Computers 2007 a Gateway to Information, a computer based information system is described as the "collection of hardware, software, data, people, and procedures that work together to produce quality information". These information systems provide opportunities to improve student learning by providing alternate ways for learners to use technology in learning environments (Shelly, Cashman, Vermaat, Discovering Computers 2007), and they enhance management capabilities of teachers as well as school administrators. For example, in many schools today student management systems are being implemented which allow parents to view their child's report card online, to observe classroom behavior over streaming videos and to go online to access their child's lesson plan and or their homework assignments. These exciting and modern applications of computer based information systems not only gain popularity in the schools but in the home environment as well.

Based on the study of Adrienne Gail E. Ramos, etc… (2011) entitled Systematized Grading System of Canossa School High School Department. The school is having problems in transferring grades from one grade sheet to another. Re-checking and re-encoding grades takes some time. This proponent study attempts to design and develop a grading system which it has the same process and flow as the old system. However the proposed system will eliminate manual writing and the school staff can prevent time and energy consumption by using a system that guarantees accurate grade recording. It will also eliminate tons of papers used in computerized grading sheet, grading sheet per quarter, and summary sheet. The grade will be directly encoded in the system. Visual Basic will be used as a tool for programming the functionalities of forms, buttons, menus, and encoding of grades.
