NOTES:
To install School Check IN, a Windows administrator account is required. Once installed, most any windows user account can be used to run School Check IN, and the \SchoolCheckIN folder must be set to FULL CONTROL for the user. The SchoolCheckIN folder is in C:\Program Files\. School Check IN (SCI) is a database application, not a program and as such, SCI needs the ability to read, write data, as well as, copy, move and delete files and folders in C:\Program Files\SchoolCheckIN\
