Income Management

• Donor Development - It is important to secure contributions and maintain good relationships with patrons. Successful donor development is less about fund-raising and more about friend-raising and knowing your donors and your families.

• Tuition Management - Getting complete payments and being able to protect your income from tuition is key to building a strong foundation.

• Financial Management - Income management is more than just billing, it is financial control. In light of today’s very public accounting problems, it is critical for schools to demonstrate the utmost integrity in this area.

The roots symbolize stability. A school must secure itself financially before it can aspire to increase in size or accomplish higher achievement goals.

School Growth

• Community Image - Presenting a professional, respectful image to parents is essential for school growth. Smart looking report cards and other pre-printed forms help present this image. Being able to provide exact information such as a student’s class or transportation schedule and medical information, is vital to keeping students safe and maintaining an image of responsibility.

• Enrollment Management - Filling you classrooms with the right students is important for revenue and for forging successful relationships for reference development. School Minder gives you the tools to develop a personalized and proactive admissions strategy, which will help to improve your enrollment of new students.

• Attrition Control - There are four critical attrition factors. These are red flags that tell you a student is a candidate for not returning next semester. We provide the insight and the tools to help stay on top of attendance, discipline, grades and parent payment activity.

The trunk of the tree represents growth. In order to grow, a school must secure itself financially before it can aspire to increase in size or accomplish

higher achievement goals.

Student Achievement

• Parent Involvement - A student’s success often hinges on the parent’s level of involvement with tasks, homework, projects and progress. Our solution gives you the tools to keep parents informed such as, detailed progress reports, and an easy-to-update online environment where parents can keep abreast of their student’s performance.

• Teacher Empowerment - Outfitting a teacher with the best tools to keep track of daily assignments, tests, quizzes and exams will allow teachers to spend more time actually teaching. Grades are automatically calculated and can be posted to the internet for parents to view. Attendance is as easy as clicking on a picture and hitting send.

• Curriculum Management - With curriculum standards and lesson plans connected via the teacher’s grade-book, the teacher always knows what to teach, and the student will be better prepared for tests.

The final step in a school’s success is the achievement of its student. The leaves or fruit of the tree symbolizes student achievement. Once financially stable and on appositive growth pace, a school will be in a position to take

every measure to excel academically.
