Student Dismissal App for Charter and Private Schools

FetchKids is the easiest-to-use solution and the only smartphone application leveraging the latest geo-location technology.   

School Dismissal app used to Reduce Student Curbside Pickup Congestion 

Private schools require specific tools and solutions to ensure they are giving their students a best-in-class experience. Our student and school dismissal app system was built by a private school administrator from the ground up to meet the unique needs of private schools. They wanted to provide a world-class system for tracking student dismissals via car, on foot, by bus, and even rideshare!

FetchKids works flawlessly with various types of independent or private learning instruction such as traditional private schools, parochial schools, Montessori schools, language immersion schools, Waldorf, private and special education schools. In addition, our system can integrate with a multitude of other tools to allow for myriad configurations for privacy, security, communication, coordination, integrations, reporting, and more!

HOW STUDENT DISMISSAL WORKS WITH FETCHKIDS

  • 1st – School staff configure their settings and integrate with their Student Information System (SIS).

  • 2nd – The Primary Parents receive a customized invitation from the school to set up their profile. 

  • 3rd – The after school pickup staff knows at a glance where each student needs to be for dismissal. They can view on the app or print comprehensive lists detailing each child’s daily dismissal plans by grade, class, dismissal method, (including exceptions), or after-school activity.

  • 4th – Because all primary parents are securely authorized, parents are empowered to make last-minute changes to pickup schedules without burdening the school staff. Changes in schedules for children with joint-custody arrangements can be made easily between divorced parents, or with the involvement of the school based on the student account settings. 

  • 5th – For pickups, staff can use the app on their personal smartphone or a school-provided tablet to match the pickup person with the information for the student and can quickly collect signatures if required.

Any type of student after school dismissal can be tracked:

  • Car Pickups – Schools can track a parent journey to school. 

  • Walking Pickups – Parents can start the app once they are ready to leave for the school on foot.

  • Busses – Parents and schools have insights into bus riders

  • After School programs – Parents ensure their children are in the right place on the right day. 

  • Carpool – Parents can track children picked up in carpools
