PROJECT OVERVIEW
Project Context
The school information system aims to help the Schola Christi Inc.
on introducing themselves more to the masses as a school that can offer a
1
lot of good incentives and of course quality education. This information is
actually easy to find with other social media platforms, but the system can
guarantee that the school has freedom on how they present themselves,
because it will not be limited through the current platform, but it is how
they picture it to be. The system also grants their own claims against
potential false information in social media, because of the existence of their
own official page. This can be achieved without physical contact; thus, it is
risk free against Covid – 19, with the help of communication technology
available at the time. The system provides history of the school along with
the founders, some pictures of their facilities, school levels and curriculum
offered, and the various achievements of the school as well as the current
students, and the graduates have achieved.

sampling and Latin Hypercube Sampling. Hence, the algorithm was
efficient in both searching and random sampling. It consisted of estimating
a local function, and then, Hill-Climbing in the steepest descent direction.
Likewise, hill climbing algorithm was only useful for relatively small
graphs in a mapping technique. The results of the paper illustrated that hill
climbing comes within a factor of two of optimum for the moderate size
graphs considered. It was also stated that performance of hill climbing
decreases with increasing graph size. They added that any state space
search technique will probably suffer from large running times due to the
size of the state space.

volume 5 Issue 2 Article 6 reasons to use information systems can be stated
as increasing effectiveness at work by processing information, increasing
managerial effectiveness by meeting the need for information and gaining
superiority in competitions by directing strategies (Yuen, et al 2003).
School management information systems aim to provide support for the
managing and educational activities of the school managers by processing
information.
School managers can make more efficient decisions when they get
correct and up-to-date information by school management information
systems (Christopher, 2003). Decision making is the heart of educational
management. Daily, problematic conditions that require decision making
are based on the complicated and unexpected nature of school environment.
For this reason, as a problem solver, the educational manager has to gather
and analyze information continuously (Perez&Uline, 2003). In addition,
managers have been required to make more decisions in short times because
of the increasing expectations from the educational system (Christopher,
2003). Moreover, decision making has been faster, more frequent and more
complicated in schools of today. In order to make decisions under these
conditions, gathering data that is continuous, up-to-date and that can be
accessed on time and analyzing and using this data is an obligation (Telem,
1991; Gentry, 2005). Success of school development studies are mostly
based on data-based decision making. However, school managers are not
able to use the data efficiently in this aspect (Gentry, 2005).

resources of information that can be used in problem solving, written
communication has been grown richer by means of word processors and e-
mails (Perez & Uline, 2003).

management and their effects on the managers.

METHODOLOGY
This chapter discusses the research design and methods used by the
developers in the study, the instrument for gathering data, and statistical
tools and treatment of data.
10
The product is defined as finished when it satisfies all of its
requirements. This model combines the elements of the waterfall model
with the iterative philosophy of prototyping. This allows partial utilization
of the product and avoids a long development time. It also helps ease the
traumatic effect of introducing a completely new system all at once.
User Requirements
Functional Requirements
The system must store all the information from the old manual
system. The system can browse information of faculty and staff, and it
contains also the necessary information that will advertise the school further
to the potential clients and existing ones. The system’s is internal or
restricted to the admin only. The functions can add, edit and search or
generate master list report, list of faculty members according to what is
entered in the search bar, and can generate the list of faculty members
alphabetically. And from the advertising side, it will display the history of
the school, mission and vision, the alma mater hymn, and of course, a
gallery of pictures that showcases the facilities and buildings of the school.
11
The members of the school’s faculty and staff, a service to contact the
school, enrollment processes, and access to the pre-existing google forms
the school have been provided, and other necessary factors that may
improve the school’s popularity as a choice to go enroll with. Contents from
this page can be requested to be replaced.
1. Administrator type has the “Faculty and admin record page” access
and will be allowed to create, add, edit, and delete, that will update
the database that is connected to the system.
2. User type has the “Home page” access, since the website is
developed to showcase what the school has to offer for them.
3. Developer type has the rights of the administrator at the same time
to edit the code to improve a requested feature or fix a bug,
Developer type can also update the contents of the website.
Network Integrated

Hardware Specification – the system needs a computer with at least 8GB
Random Access Memory (RAM) and 256GB of hard disk space. In
addition, the system should have a colored monitor screen with 1920 x 1080
pixels, a keyboard, mouse and a printer.

Functionality was the ability of the system to satisfy the purpose for
which it was designed. It has a weighted mean of 4.80. It showed that the
respondents in the functionality of the system as Excellent.
Table shows that the design was rated by the respondents of 4.80 as
weighted mean which are verbally interpreted as Excellent. This rating
showed that they were satisfied om the design of the system.
18
User-friendliness of the system is the easiness to use by the users.
The respondents rated the system Excellent with the total weighted mean of
4.70.

CHAPTER IV
SOFTWARE MODELS
This chapter shows the Data Flow Diagram of the proposed system,
20
Figure 2. Use Case Diagram
21
As shown in this diagram, the system is embedded in a website that
showcases or advertises the school’s capabilities and why it should be
chosen. The system is designed to work with other services available that
are currently being used by the school, and are deemed to not need
necessary replacements. Aside from these external communications with
other services, it can also keep and managed records of the faculty and staff
working there.
22
As stated, when describing the use case diagram, the system
complements with other pre-existing systems and methods the school uses.
The processes do not directly affect each other, but gives the part that each
of the processes need to provide. The web page advertises, the faculty
management system handles records of the faculty and staff, and other
partner services handles the enrolment process as requested by the partner
company that requested this system.
