[edit] PIV

Spring ISD began using the Pinnacle Internet Viewer software in Spring 2005 at Westfield Ninth Grade Center and the following school year district-wide. This software enabled students and parents to view their grades at home through the access of the internet. Beginning in the 2006-2007 school year, Spring ISD no longer uses the Pinnacle Internet Viewer(PIV) software.
