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. And if all of your communication comes through SchoolStatus, which it does in my district, I can see it all—it’s all right there.Chad Shealy

It's exciting to contribute to something that supports both educators and students in such a direct, measurable way.Casey Bevins
Senior Visual DesignerI 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.
