What Users Love About the App

“Tech Savvy parents keep reporting how much they love that we’ve started using this for the directory, messaging, events, documents, and photos. FreshSchools is a great communication portal.”

The bugs that I’ve come across were acknowledged and taken care of right away. I appreciate the site and I am very happy with the overall experience in using FreshSchools.”

We had a horrible system for our PTO in past years, but Fresh Schools has been a wonderful change. Already the teachers and parents are thrilled and actually excited to use it more and more.”

Glad to have a school store that is easy to maintain and use. We have had great support from the FreshSchools team, and request for features has been delivered in a short time (weeks, not months).”

“Anytime we have had a suggestion or problem, we get a response within an hour or two. We will absolutely use FreshSchools again next year.”
