What members are saying…

“[Partnering with Parchment] has been the best experience. The team created a program specific for our needs, provided access for our families to apply for regular enrollment, new choice opportunities, and then built the lotteries for each program. [K-12 Lottery] has allowed my department to have electronic enrollment and applications. We are then able to send things digitally directly to schools. It also affords us the ability to communicate with families directly through email and phone. Our families have been able to create their dashboard and apply for programs for each of their children – all in the same dashboard – and from the comfort of their home.”

Why school systems large and small use K-12 Lottery

Convenient for families - Pre-K Enroll and Lottery

Convenient for families

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.

Security and privacy

Manage and secure student information

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.

 

Simplify complicated processes

Simplify complicated processes

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.

Automate communications - K-12 Lottery Update

Automate communications

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.

Increase transparency and fair practices

Increase transparency and fair practices

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.

Simplify reporting

Simplify reporting

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.
