For many families, in-person K-12 lottery processes can be challenging at worst and inconvenient at best.The time and costs associated with transportation, making paper copies of documents, childcare, and missing work add up quickly, not to mention the confusion of navigating program decisions and waitlist processes. By bringing the enrollment process to a mobile-friendly platform that can be translated into 240+ languages, you can remove these barriers and give families one less thing to worry about.
Paper-based processes and basic online forms require the management of an incredible amount of personal information and documents. Parchment’s system reduces the need for staff to gather, organize, process, and follow-up on applications or worry about lost documents. When used with our suite of records management solutions, documents submitted during the lottery and enrollment process can be securely stored in a student’s cumulative file for authorized staff to access when needed.
Say goodbye to bingo balls and raffles.The advanced logic capabilities of K-12 Lottery empower your school system to automatically prioritize learner applications by categories of your choosing, such as location, siblings, employee status, military status, socioeconomic status and more. You can also support tiered choices for families, tuition or fee acceptance, program pipelines, automatic approvals and more. The best news? When you’re ready to launch your lottery, Parchment can process large amounts of applications in a matter of minutes rather than the days it takes to process with paper and spreadsheets.
When documents are missing or questions on application status come up, your staff is often the first line of defense, meaning an influx of inbound or outbound communications for your staff to manage. Parchment K-12 Lottery automates messaging for missing documents, incomplete applications, and application or waitlist status, so your staff can focus on the big picture.
When space is limited, it’s important to ensure the learners and families who are the best fit for your program are admitted. That can be difficult to manage when you don’t have easy visibility into data or an audit trail of application activities. Parchment’s online solution brings more transparency into your operations, so your staff can ensure the right learners are admitted at the right time.
Gathering the information needed to report on your programs can be incredibly tedious with paper- or PDF-based applications. With Parchment K-12 Lottery, you can easily access the application information needed for grant applications, enrollment, and outcome reporting.
At Parchment, we help you transform the student records of today into the credentials of tomorrow, starting from the moment they enroll in your school system. Our suite of enrollment, records, and credential services is built for K-12 school systems and integrates into the largest credentials exchange on the planet.
