Biloxi Public Schools (MS) to Launch Online Solution from InfoSnap for Student Registration and Payment Collection with Multilingual Functionality
Austin, Texas (PRWEB) March 04, 2015 -- Biloxi Public Schools (MS) will move from a paper-based system to an online solution for student registration. The 5,700 student district partnered with InfoSnap to design, develop, and deploy an innovative solution to streamline new and annual student registration through seamless integration between InfoSnap and Biloxi’s s student information system (SIS), InformationNOW (iNOW).
“Student registration has been a very tedious and time consuming process. District staff volunteered their time during a 2 day event while families came in to complete a 7-10 page packet,” said Glenn Dedeaux, Director of Student Services at Biloxi. “InfoSnap will streamline this entire process by customizing a solution for our district that is not only convenient for our families but valuable for our staff.”
Instead of completing stacks of paper forms, families will be able to register their students electronically. Families who have more than one child within the district can ‘snap’ data from one student to another. The use of SmartForm™ technology, an intuitive tool built into the solution, will collect relevant data based on previously entered information or choices (grade, activities, medical history, etc.).
“We did our research to find a company that would develop an intuitive solution with integration capabilities to iNOW. InfoSnap offers an incomparable user-interface and has the infrastructure in place that will pair well with our SIS. We’re excited about the launch of our customized solution,” said Dedeaux.
The data submitted by families are reviewed, polished, and formatted to meet Biloxi’s policies and then delivered into iNOW, which will modernize the existing workflow for administrative staff.
Biloxi Public Schools will also implement InfoSnap’s Payment Management Service which will allow administrators to easily collect and report on all fees and donations at the time of form submission. In addition, InfoSnap’s Language Localization will meet the need of this diverse population by providing multilingual forms to families in Spanish and Vietnamese.
