Mater Dei High School and Fairmont Private Schools. Built by someone who lived the workflow.
I taught for 16 years and graded somewhere north of 40,000 novel-study packets. The grading was the worst part of the job I loved. BookPulse is the tool I wish I'd had — every chapter, every book, every Monday, ready to go. If you're an ELA teacher, I built this for you.
