Kathryn Mullen Upton, Director of Charter School Sponsorship at TBFF

William Pistulka, Director at NMUCSO

Kathy Sickles, Administrative Assistant at ESCLEW
“It is a ‘lifesaver’ in tracking school’s compliance!”
David Mancini, Coordinator of Community Schools at ESCCO
“We did not feel the previous system served to ease our workload or provide a comprehensive picture of our schools’ compliance. We needed an electronic system that allowed us to be organized and accurate in our record keeping, as well as keep us in front of statutory and contract requirement deadlines.”
Elisabeth Webb, Toledo Regional Representative at OCCS
“There are several advantages to doing oversight with the tool, both monetary and operational:
Monetarily:

- No additional staff required for oversight
Operational:
- No FSU technical resources required
- Secure historical archives
- Improved data access

- CSO knows the status of each academy’s compliance on a daily basis
- Each academy knows its compliance status on a daily basis.”
Mindy Britton, Compliance Auditor/Board Liaison at FSUCSO
“I like the time savings that I get with the tool. Since all of the requirements are in one place, the schools access the same thing we do so I don’t have to manually send out reminders, print off forms and file them in my binders. Also, the tool gives me the peace of mind knowing that each school gets notified ahead of time — with the alert system — when something is due.”
Erin Lanoue, Associate Director at Chicago International Charter School
“The system is reliable, easy to use, and straightforward while providing valuable data and statistics.”
