Advance Notice Advantage
Know Who’s Arriving—Before They Arrive

With FetchKids, schools and programs receive advance notice when parents are on their way. This critical insight allows staff to stage students just in time—reducing wait times, improving safety, and making staggered dismissals smoother and more efficient. It’s a key advantage that sets FetchKids apart from any other dismissal tool.

How Our School Dismissal Software Works
A Simple, Flexible Flow for Dismissals

FetchKids simplifies dismissals in three easy steps:

  1. Parent Taps “I’m On My Way” — Staff are alerted in real time.
  2. Staff Prep Students for Pickup — The right student is ready at the right time.
  3. Pickup Is Confirmed — Parents receive instant confirmation in the app.

Schools can also track attendance, log late arrivals, coordinate after-school activities, and store all communication in one place.

It’s an efficient, affordable school dismissal solution that saves staff time, improves safety, and keeps parents in the loop.
