"Now we are able to have everything in one place, saving us loads of time and headaches. For example, the Skyward Health Module does away with the cost and support of our previous third-party health office system."

"We needed buy-in from our families, That’s why creating opportunities for students and parents to communicate better with the school district was not only an investment financially, but also an investment in the importance of the experience."

"Had I have known the time that it would save me each year in setting up contracts and pay records for the staff I would have begun using it much sooner. I wholeheartedly recommend this product."

"We are a small rural district with a small business department. Skyward allows us to efficiently and accurately complete important financial tasks."

"They see it as very simple for them to use – it’s pretty intuitive, and I think they feel comfortable using it, We don’t get a lot of questions on ‘how do I do this’ or ‘how do I do that’ – they can easily log in, and with the options for them to choose from, the system is not overwhelming."

"We send data all 12 months of the year. [When a change occurs,] Skyward gets back to us in a very reasonable amount of time with solutions and a realistic timeline for implementing the necessary changes."

"Skyward helps our district by having phenomenal technical support using the chat feature. It saves a ton of time and is the best I've ever used."

"With Skyward, students have 24/7 access to all grades and missing assignments. Gone are the days of a student using “I didn’t know” as an excuse!"

"The School Business Suite is an integral piece of everything we do, Between that and the student system, there is really no one individual or area of the school that isn’t touched or impacted by something related to Skyward on a daily basis."

"I appreciate that the iCon sessions help all levels - new participants and experts."

"I would absolutely recommend Family and Student Access to other districts. It has provided us with multiple useful tools, and we continue to explore additional ways we can fully utilize it in our building."

"They need to think about their underlying processes, cultural issues with paper, and the capacity of the staff to be able to effectively use a solution like Skyward, If a district successfully commits to that cultural shift, then Skyward is a great and powerful tool to achieve efficiency and effectiveness."

"One of the things that attracted us most to Skyward was the fact that it was web-based. It was very important to us because we want teachers to have access to their gradebook, their online lesson plans, and so forth, at home."

“I once worked at a district using multiple databases, each of which didn’t always easily communicate well with the other. That alone makes Skyward stand out, because it interacts and integrates so much easier. From a superintendent perspective, the time savings alone have been key. I am responsible for approving many items and the more I can do with the click of a button, the easier my job is.”

"We are very happy with the Skyward Special Ed Module. I find myself using it not just for writing IEP's, but for broader data collection features as well. I love it!"
