Our teaches use GradeBook Pro but we can't see what we have.
We should though since we are a 1-on-1 Laptop school.

Yeah our college uses one of those, its called VLE (Virtual Learning Environment). Means we can check our attendance and threads our teachers have made about us, get hold of our teachers, and check our term reports when they come out.

Our university uses online gradebooks but not all courses do (i.e. some still have it where you need to go to the lab room, find your student number on huge lists then check your grade). However, our final grades for all courses are online. Most of the courses I've taken use online gradebooks, only about 2-3 that haven't. I think they're much better because when you want to know your grade, it's just a click away (literally).

MY school uses a program called JMC. Idk what it means, but I like it because I am absent a lot, so this helps me keep track of what I have yet to do.

I wish that we had them at our school. But all of my teachers are lazy and dont put the grades in until the end of the 9 weeks.

I wonder how easily protected this programs/sites are. I mean, if you're a talented programmer/hacker couldn't you just change your grade? Online grading would make my life a lot easier if the system is easy to hack... But a) I don't have online grading at my school (that's visible to the students) and b) I doubt it's that easy to hack.

Powerschool.. yeah. [generally anything from college board sucks, but this is one of the better things my school's decided to use]
It lets the geeks be OCD about their grades, and parents of slackers learn about grades before the quarter's over :P
I like being able to check my grades before teachers decide to announce them [so much for confidentiality eh?]

We use Edline. Very useful for me but I hate the fact that parents and students both golet accounts...

Yes. Skyward, which has been down for a week but I'm happy about that.
It has grades, attendance, lunch money, homework assignments, etc...
Kinda sucks...
All of my teachers also have websites.
