Don't worry too much about your bloated competition such as Blackboard. I am currently a college student and I hate having having to check blackboard. I would much rather have assignment and announcements emailed to me. Most students are lazy like that too. However there are several things that schools need.

-roster page where students can email the whole class or select number of students

-discussion board

-some communication channel for parents, parents heavily invested in their child and a lot of them have zero clue of what they are learning

-A simple class page incase the student wants to login and get their assignments without their clutter of their email.

-Clear subject lines for emails that are sent out

I love the design and the font. You should definitely save the list of students emails. Have a page where it has the class roster and be able to email students individually or groups of students.

Be sure to submit it to http://AppUseful.com also!

I cannot believe why so many people are so enamored with Seth Goldin's grossly glorified common sense.

    * Word spreads.

No shit. Word of mouth, that is really important.

   * Needs are similar.

Wow you need to pick a market with multiple customers. Brilliant!!!

    * Budgets exist.

Make sure your Customers have money! Don't know if you guys know this, if your customers don't have money, they cannot pay you!

     * Barriers exist.

Who has not heard of barriers to entry? Well IMHO, barrier to entry from the technology standpoint is not that important. There are many programmer than can make twitter, youtube, wordpress clones...etc. Execution is more crucial
