Rich School District, located in northeastern Utah, serves a wide geographic area with a small enrollment of around 500 students. The district is committed to providing modern educational tools to its students and staff.
Challenge
Teachers were frustrated by the time-consuming process of helping students log into various third-party applications which often led to delays in classroom activities. Students struggled with remembering multiple passwords, further compounding the issue. On the backend, the district’s IT team spent considerable time manually rostering students and provisioning accounts in Active Directory (AD), which stole time from other critical tasks.
Solution
To streamline digital access and automation, Rich School District implemented ClassLink’s IAM solutions. LaunchPad allowed students to log in with one password to access all their assigned applications on a personalized landing page. Technology Director Casey Johnson praised Roster Server for its ability to automatically assign third-party applications to students by grade level, eliminating manual rostering tasks. With OneSync, student accounts in Active Directory were automatically created with the right credentials and group assignments as soon as they were added to the Student Information System (SIS).
Results
ClassLink transformed the way Rich School District manages digital access and IT operations. Teachers and IT staff reclaimed countless hours by eliminating manual account provisioning and troubleshooting login issues. Roster Server and OneSync streamlined backend processes, ensuring student data and accounts are always up-to-date and accurately assigned. Now teachers can focus on instruction instead of navigating technical barriers, fostering a smoother and more engaging classroom experience.
"Classlink has helped us ease what can sometimes become a burden from technology. They've gone above and beyond to tailor the services they offer to our specific needs, and we appreciate it very much.”
