SchoolStatus Launches Forms & Flows to Automate K-12 Workflows and Digitize Processes

Ridgeland, Mississippi—June 12, 2024—SchoolStatus, a leading provider of cloud-based solutions for K-12 school communications, attendance, and operations, today announced the launch of Forms & Flows, a new add-on product that allows schools and districts to digitize paper-based processes and automate administrative workflows. Forms & Flows seamlessly integrates with the robust SchoolStatus Connect communications platform to create a unified system for managing tasks, gathering data, and communicating with all stakeholders.

With Forms & Flows, educators can convert tedious manual processes like student onboarding, parent forms, internal requests, and approvals into streamlined digital workflows. Smart logic and automated actions ensure information flows seamlessly between families, staff, and administrators without bottlenecks. Routine tasks that previously required printing, collating, data entry, and back-and-forth communications can now be completed paperlessly in one centralized solution.

“Administrative inefficiencies act as a constant drag on school productivity and momentum,” said Russ Davis, Founder and CEO of SchoolStatus. “With Forms & Flows, we’re helping districts eliminate those resistance forces so they can unlock their full potential and focus resources on priorities that truly move the needle for students.”

Key capabilities of SchoolStatus Forms & Flows include:

• Paperless data collection through customizable eForm templates
• Automated workflows to route requests and approvals with smart logic 
• Self-service portals for families and staff to submit information anytime
• Seamless integrations with SIS platforms and other data systems  
• Multilingual form translations to ensure accessibility
• Built-in e-signature capabilities for secure approvals
• Centralized admin dashboards to track processes in real-time

Forms & Flows will be available in North America starting in July 2024. SchoolStatus Connect customers can purchase Forms & Flows as an add-on to the communications platform, while new customers can bundle the solutions together as part of their contracting process.

“Before using Forms & Flows, our student registration process required families to toggle between five different websites and duplicate information across PDFs and web forms,” said Barbara Thompson, Registrar at Summit School District, who had early access to the tool. “Now everything is streamlined into one seamless experience, saving us hours of effort while improving data accuracy.”

Forms & Flows is the latest addition to SchoolStatus’ comprehensive suite of solutions aimed at boosting efficiency and meaningful engagement for K-12 schools. To learn more about Forms & Flows, visit https://www.schoolstatus.com/products/forms-and-flows.
