NavEd Free Gradebook
Central Virginia, United States
What it is
NavEd Free Gradebook is a web-based gradebook for educators managing one class of up to 10 students. Enter assignment names, possible points, and weights in a spreadsheet-style grid, then see student averages and letter grades update as scores are added. Calculations can be weighted or unweighted. The tool exports a PDF report containing grades, averages, and letter grades. You can begin without an account; adding an email enables a magic link for returning to saved work. It is described as mobile friendly on phones and tablets and is aimed at educators in microschools, co-ops, and small schools. The free plan lasts forever, costs nothing, and requires no credit card, but it covers only one class and 10 students. Full NavEd plans start at $2.50 per student monthly or $99 yearly, with the first five students free. NavEd also lists TLS transmission encryption, separate school database schemas, and role-based access controls.
