They launched a thorough and inclusive multi-step process that involved nurses, teachers, principals, secretaries, parents, and students from the requirements gathering stage. After online and in-person demonstrations of three finalist systems, the core team selected Synergy SIS for its flexibility, forward-thinking design, and wide-ranging functionality.<\/p>\n<p>Synergy SIS balances ease of use with a degree of control that is unmatched in the marketplace. Synergy provides schools and districts with exceptional data access and reporting capabilities, powerful tools for streamlining and automating processes, extensive customization options, and best-in-class data security. The built-in TeacherVUE\u00ae Portal With Gradebook gives teachers a single place to access attendance and seating charts, a 360\u00b0 profile of every student, and tools for analyzing student progress and standards proficiency. The ParentVUE\u00ae and StudentVUE\u00ae portals provide families with unprecedented access to grades, assignments, progress indicators, and teacher communication. Role-based mobile apps offer convenience for teachers, administrators, special education teams, counselors, health staff, parents, and students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe felt like we were picking the best of the best,\u201d said Phillip Howard, Executive Director of Technology at Lake Zurich. \u201cIt met 913 of our 915 functional requirements. That\u2019s pretty great. The mobile-first posture was really compelling. So was the ability to directly access the database. We liked that Synergy would allow us to customize every screen to our heart\u2019s content despite being a full-featured product off-the-shelf. The user interface was thoughtfully laid out and scored high for ease of use. Plus, it\u2019s a one-stop shop \u2013 we didn\u2019t have to buy a bunch of add-ons or systems that would need support from a third party.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As part of the seamless Synergy Education Platform ecosystem, Synergy SIS enables schools and districts to easily extend functionality to include online registration, MTSS, assessment, analytics, learning management, and special education management in a single platform.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLake Zurich CUSD\u2019s search for a new student information system was about more than just software,\u201d said Rob Wilson, President and Chief Innovation Officer at Edupoint. \u201cIt was about finding the right partnership to take the district into the future. At Edupoint we work hard to be that partner and were pleased that the evaluation team saw the evidence in our product. We look forward to supporting the district in achieving its goals and fulfilling its mission to \u2018empower every learner to achieve personal excellence.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Edupoint Educational Systems<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For over 35 years, the leadership of Edupoint Educational Systems has provided well-designed, technologically advanced student data management systems that empower K-12 stakeholders to improve student achievement.
