"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’re not going to have the errors on timesheets – before a person could put down ‘8 a.m. to 4 p.m.’ and say that was 10 hours, There are not those kinds of addition errors or calculating errors on both the employees’ part and the people who process payroll. When you’ve got that many manual timesheets to go through to check and approve, and only a certain amount of time to do it in, there’s a chance for errors."

"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!"

"We were excited from the beginning about our move to Skyward, and our district staff had many cheerleaders helping us move through the implementation, The Skyward staff was outstanding in answering our every question and keeping us on task. I am still amazed at what was accomplished in such a short period of time. It was a very positive process and a great move to Skyward."

“We recently started a 1:1 program in grades three through twelve. To start a 1:1 program we needed a larger wireless network and a faster fiber network. Those demands created a lot of work for our IT department,” explained for Staples-Motley. “We haven’t added any IT staff since implementing our 1:1 program. We just didn’t have the time, manpower, or money to host our Skyward system in-house anymore.”

"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."

"That time during the school day is really valuable, and I weighed out what our needs were, We needed a way to account for students."

"We use all aspects of Employee Access and no longer print W2's or pay stubs which helps cut down on processing time and the cost of supplies and postage."

"It is reliable, dependable, full-featured, and the core users love it and are able to pick it up easily. It's everything you want out of your student management system to help your school run efficiently and smoothly."

"Skyward's iCon is a wonderful event... It gives customers a chance to put faces to the names of Skyward staff and to feel more a part of the Skyward family."

"The most important benefit to using Skyward is the immediate access it provides to parents... From paying school meals online, to seeing attendance, grades, and missing assignments, parents have a great overview of how their children are doing."

"Everyone loves being able to look at grades, discipline, and attendance in one place, Before implementing Skyward RtI, teachers created Excel spreadsheets and printed out mailing labels for the letters that were sent home to every student who had to be tested. Now, Skyward generates forms to email. If there’s no response, they send a letter. Best of all, teams of teachers have access to all of the data so they can figure out what each student needs."

"The master schedule builder is the best scheduling program I have ever worked with, allowing the high school for three years in a row to schedule student requests successfully at or above 95%."

"What I Didn’t Expect Was For The Students To Embrace It So Much. It Can Be Three O’clock In The Morning, And There Are Kids Who Are Checking Their Grades. It’s Crazy."
