School Districts Work Smarter
Schools can engage families instantly with district-wide announcements and digital start-up packages—no more costly printing and mailing. Districts can create and manage forms, tasks, donations, and shared calendars across all schools for greater consistency.
Fund receipting is automated, and accurate, real-time accounting reports provide both school- and district-level payment details. Digital permission forms that are standardized across your district make compliance a breeze and simplify activities management for admins, teachers, and families.
Office Administrators Save Time
Office admins save valuable time by eliminating the need to handle, count, and deposit physical cash. With accurate, real-time tracking of all transactions—paid and unpaid—administrators can easily reconcile accounts and reduce liability.
Online payments are available for any school item, and instant digital communication with families keeps everyone informed. Appointment booking is automated, and paper use is dramatically reduced, supporting both efficiency and sustainability.
School budgets should fund education, not payment processing fees.
Teachers Stay Focused
Teachers can organize every aspect of classroom events with less hassle and distraction, from sending permission forms and collecting payments to coordinating volunteer requests. Managing classroom fees and forms is simple, and announcements reach parents instantly on their devices.
Teachers can maintain and share a calendar of activities and events and take the back-and-forth out of scheduling parent-teacher interviews.
Parents Stay Connected
No more hunting for exact change or hoping cash actually makes it to the office. Sparkrock School-Day lets parents make secure and convenient payments online. They can register students for trips and activities in a few clicks, and complete permission forms without the usual pile of paperwork.
Communication is easy with digital alerts, online parent-teacher scheduling, and school calendar syncing options.

Save Money, Save Paper, Save Your Weekends
How many photocopies can one school board with 60,000 students produce in one year? The answer is 61.5 million! All this paper primarily goes home with students, but is also shared between staff and posted or mailed to school members for information. When you include potential postage, storage, recycling and disposal, the overall costs can be staggering.
One district saved $35,000 per year in costs related to their September home package alone. This manual process involved printing, collating, and mailing a 20-page document stack. By moving that entire process online, they achieved an enormous reduction in paper, printing, and people costs.
