Depends on your needs. Microsoft Access might suite your needs fine, depending on the size of your school and the number of users. An Access file is basically a database with reports and forms to make viewing data easy and to make inputting data easy. If you want to build a full-fledged solution yourself with ASP.NET and a database backend, then you need to do some design work yourself. Ask the users what they want, and go from there.
