SolutionsSTUDENT INFORMATION SYSTEM

Student Information Systems and the Student Success Layer

A student information system is the system of record for core school data such as enrollment, attendance, grades, scheduling and other administrative information. Onward180 is not positioned as a replacement for every SIS function. It is designed as the student-success layer that helps people act on information across the school day.

THE PROBLEM

High-school support breaks down when the student story is fragmented.

A school can have accurate records and still struggle to coordinate the human work around them. Knowing that a student is absent, behind in credits or off track is different from knowing who is following up and what support is happening next.
