Automated Student Registration Leads To Improved Parent Communications
The Challenge
Ross Valley School District (RVSD) was unsatisfied with the same time-consuming, inefficient, paper-based enrollment system they had been using for years, so they began the search for a more efficient process. “Our parents are tech-savvy, yet we were making them complete the registration process and fill out school forms in an old-school way,” said Marci Trahan, assistant superintendent of RVSD and 25-year veteran of the district. “We needed something faster and easier. We needed a way to automate these back-office operations so that our interactions with parents could be focused solely on more substantive topics,” she added.
