“More than 95 percent of Ozark families are able to access the Student 360 app at their fingertips. Parents and students monitor real-time academics, contact teachers, make online lunch payments and complete yearly registration paperwork all at one secure location,” said Lisa Neiman, student data coordinator for Ozark School District in Ozark, Missouri. “Student 360 provides yet another tool for communication and student success.”

The new Student 360 portal complements Tyler SIS, a comprehensive suite of solutions offering core school district functions, including attendance, grade book, scheduling, enrollment, transcripts, GPAs, discipline and more. Current Tyler SIS clients will receive the Student 360 platform without additional license fees through Tyler’s evergreen perpetual licensing approach, which provides regular and significant, yet manageable, software enhancements without an additional relicensing fee, ensuring all systems are on the latest technology.

The easy-to-use Student 360 app was built with end-users in mind and leverages the latest technology, including advanced mobile security measures. The platform’s agnostic, touch-enabled user interface is as easy to use on laptops, tablets and mobile phones as it is on desktops.

“Tyler employees created Student 360 from concept to launch, showcasing the company’s application development skills and commitment to building creative software solutions for the public sector,” said David Grossman, vice present of product development for Tyler SIS. “With the Student 360 app, schools can deliver a comprehensive SIS solution that allows many more options for accessing student data while improving overall communication between parents, staff and students.”
