Software has upgraded its system with several new
features to make it easier for K–12 schools, districts, and
families to manage enrollment, transfers, school choice and other
data. They have also streamlined the system to be faster and more
responsive, the company said in a release.
Cloud-based
Scribbles Software has several solutions for keeping track of K–12
data, including ScribOrder,
ScribTransfer,
ScribFolders,
ScribEnroll,
ScribChoice,
ScribPreK,
ScribForms,
ScribOnline,
and ScribChain.
One of the new features for ScribTransfer is ScribDashboard, which
has color-coded charts providing transfer information, notably
departure date and new school information.
“For
example, a pie chart might show that the majority of students who
left transferred to private schools, virtual academies, or
neighboring districts,” the company said. “The district can sort
by date ranges or drill down to see data for a specific school. This
type of data helps districts as they develop strategies to help
retain students and attract new ones.”
Other
features include:
-
Automatic tiering of applications in order of a student’s
preference, allowing districts to see students’ top choice of
programs they have applied for;
-
Daily email notifications for choice program managers showing the
number of applications accepted within the last 24 hours and those
still pending or in progress;
-
Alerts for parents who set up accounts but didn’t complete their
child’s application;
-
Improved searching and navigation.
Performance
upgrades include responsiveness improvements on the mobile site,
reducing processing time and making login smoother.
“Our
mission is to improve records management for school districts and
provide them with valuable data to support their enrollment and
choice programs. Our latest product features will help them make
getting this information even easier and faster,” said Misty
Reinhardt, product manager for Scribbles Software.
