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.

Improve Attendance & Strengthen Family Engagement Across the Commonwealth
Meet Pennsylvania’s high standards for attendance and family engagement, while saving staff time. SchoolStatus helps districts automate required attendance interventions, communicate with families about student progress, and uncover data insights that guide action.
Intervene Early to Improve Attendance
Pennsylvania law (24 P.S. § 13-1333) requires districts to notify families when students miss three or more days of school. SchoolStatus makes compliance simple. We integrate directly with your SIS to flag students who need an attendance intervention, then automatically deliver notifications to families on your behalf. You’ll meet commonwealth requirements, get students back to class, and save your team hours of administrative work.

Reverse Chronic Absenteeism with Early Insights
The Future Ready PA Index factors chronic absenteeism into school accountability scores. SchoolStatus helps you take action before it becomes a problem. Early Warning Insights identifies students likely to be chronically absent after the first 60 days of school, so you can step in early, support families, and keep your district’s rating strong.
