Web Portal / CMS

CatapultCMS is a K–12 website and content-management system for creating coordinated district and school sites. It gives communications and school staff structured tools for publishing news, calendars, alerts, directories, documents, and other public information without requiring routine web development.

Districts can distribute responsibility across schools while maintaining shared branding, navigation, permissions, and oversight. Catapult also offers communications and emergency-management products, so districts should document which modules are licensed rather than assume every capability is included with the website.

eChalk is a K–12 website and communications platform for managing district, school, class, group, and staff pages from a shared content-management system. It helps districts publish timely information while giving central administrators control over site structure, design, permissions, and content sharing.

The platform includes responsive templates, calendars, directories, news, alerts, translation support, and eChalk GUIDE accessibility checks. eChalk became part of Edlio in 2021 but continues to maintain a distinct platform and customer-support presence, so it should not be treated as a retired product.

Edlio is a unified K–12 communications platform centered on a school website content-management system. District and school staff can publish pages, news, calendars, staff directories, teacher pages, media, alerts, forms, and other community information without coding while administrators manage branding, permissions, and site structure.

Optional and integrated services extend the website into mobile apps, mass notification, social publishing, payments, and accessibility checking. The platform solves both public-web publishing and cross-channel family communication, but districts should document which modules and data connections are included in their contract.

EdSpire is a K–12 digital communications platform combining custom school and district websites with content management, mobile apps, portals, notifications, and classroom-oriented tools. It helps organizations establish a branded public presence while giving staff channels for publishing updates and directing families to personalized information.

The offering extends beyond a website CMS into newsfeeds, email and text notifications, user-specific portals, and optional SIS or Google integrations. Districts should separate the public-web requirement from LMS and portal functions so they can assess accessibility, data governance, support, and ongoing content ownership for each component.

Finalsite is a K–12 website, communications, and enrollment-marketing platform used to manage district and school web presences at scale. It provides a structured CMS for pages, news, calendars, directories, alerts, media, forms, and branded sites while allowing central teams to delegate updates across schools and departments.

The broader platform can add mass notification, mobile apps, accessibility monitoring, analytics, inbound marketing, and enrollment tools. Districts should define which system is authoritative for calendars, contacts, emergency messages, and translated content because Finalsite can overlap with SIS, notification, and communications products.

SchoolInSites is a K–12 website platform for building and maintaining district and school sites with shared branding and distributed content ownership. It lets nontechnical staff publish pages, news, events, documents, staff information, and community resources while district leaders retain administrative oversight.

The product addresses the practical challenge of keeping many school sites current and consistent without routing every change through a webmaster. Districts should evaluate its accessibility controls, migration services, multilingual delivery, emergency messaging, integrations, and support against their local communications plan.

SchoolBlocks is a K–12 website and digital-engagement platform that combines managed school and district websites with Google Workspace content, mobile access, document engagement, and AI-assisted answers. It is designed to make public information easier for families to find while allowing staff to maintain content through familiar workflows.

The platform is currently marketed as a distinct product and should not be retired. Because LINQ also has a separate website record in this category, the catalog should confirm ownership and product boundaries during reconciliation rather than merging the two based only on overlapping features.

SchoolNow, now presented through SchoolStatus Sites, is a K–12 website and communications platform for building district and school sites, managing distributed content, and helping families find timely information. It combines website publishing with tools such as alerts, calendars, forms, mobile access, and audience engagement.

The current support site uses the SchoolStatus Sites name, indicating that the catalog should verify successor branding before making a formal rename. Existing district relationships should remain attached to this record until the deployed product and contract name are confirmed.
