Title:

Automated Attendance Processes and Preference Management for Mass Notification Platform

Agreement Number:

1043921

Agreement Value:

$96,000.00

Agreement Date:

Jun 14, 2026 - Jan 23, 2027

Description:

Box Clever is expanding its Memo mass notification platform for K-12 school districts. Over 7 months, the project will add two new capabilities: automated student attendance notifications and a self-serve portal where parents and guardians can manage their communication preferences. Memo will pull attendance data from the main student information systems used in Canadian schools, apply district rules, and send messages by phone, SMS, and email. Parents will be able to choose how they receive non-mandatory notices, while required notifications still get through. The outcome will be to cut the time school staff spend on attendance calls and give families more control over how their school reaches them.
