Elizabeth Lalor, Deputy Superintendent for Educational Support & School AdministrationAs an administrator, I want to make sure that if a kid's not there, I want my teachers to call the families before we get a whole administrative intervention and counselors involved.

I like the ease with which I can contact families using my own personal phone without giving out my personal number. I also like that the student's contacts are readily available. This platform works well for families to contact us, too. We can truly partner in the student's education and work towards a goal that works for all.Abigail S.

Build on Alabama’s Attendance Success
Alabama schools have made meaningful progress in reducing chronic absenteeism–and the momentum is strong. Continue that progress with tools that automate attendance interventions and strengthen family engagement, helping even more students stay in class and on track.
Automate Outreach to Reduce Chronic Absenteeism
Alabama’s report card includes chronic absenteeism in school grades. SchoolStatus helps ensure absences aren’t bringing down your score. We connect with your SIS to find students who need support and send proven messages that get them back to school.

Make Compliance Easy, Get Time Back
ALSDE requires a written notice when students miss more than five days. Schools are also required to schedule a conference. Managing both without the right systems in place is time-consuming. SchoolStatus handles everything from identifying students who need an intervention to sending letters and reaching out when a conference is scheduled. Your staff can get time back to focus on students.

Send Meaningful Messages to Families
Family engagement in Alabama means more than just sending broadcast messages. It’s about giving families the information they need to truly partner with educators. SchoolStatus makes sharing that information easy by combining communications tools with academic, behavior, attendance, and assessment data.
Reach Every Family
SchoolStatus ensures your Parent and Family Engagement Plan accounts for everyone. Messages can be sent in a way that works for families, whether that’s through email, an in-app message, a text, or a phone call. What’s more? Auto-translation into 130+ languages ensures every family is connected.
Real Results from SchoolStatus Districts
SchoolStatus is solving the problem of mainstream, consistent communication utilizing one platform instead of multiple platforms.
