Why not have a calendar for each school and then when you want to display them 
together merge them into one view?  I understand the school filter option is 
just one example but thought I'd throw that out there.

Subject: [tech-geeks] need recommendation for web based group calendar

Hi all,

We've been using google calanders to publish district wide events.
Latley, we've been getting complaints that it isn't flexible enough
for users needs. For example it doesn't allow the public users to
filter events so a parent at an elementary school has to pick their
events out from stuff happening at a highschool, rather than just
ticking a box and only showing events at one school.

Currently we're reviewing Trumba which seems to do what we want
http://www.trumba.com/connect/default.aspx but it costs 100.00 a month
(sort of steep IMO)

We've looked at bedework http://www.bedework.org/bedework/ which is an
interesting open source project, but doesn't seem particularly user
friendly.

Can anyone recommend a web based shared calendar that supports
filter-views and it reasonably easy to set up and use? Bonus points if
it's GPL or Open Source!!


Thanks!

John
