"We have students log in every single day. Last summer, after our first year, I think we averaged about 30 students a day over the summer without teacher instruction. Students want to be in the platform, and that's a huge difference,

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Most "CCR tools" just digitize a survey or a career quiz. A real college and career readiness platform runs the whole program — course planning, college and career exploration, work-based learning, FAFSA, alumni outcomes, and state CCR/CCMR compliance — and connects every student action to a counselor dashboard and a state report automatically. SchooLinks is built as that workflow platform: what students do flows straight into personalized learning plans, real-time readiness dashboards, and compliance reporting, with no spreadsheets in between.
Yes — it's the platform districts most often move to when they leave Naviance. Naviance is now one of roughly 30 products under PowerSchool, competing for roadmap attention; districts on it for 5+ years routinely say it feels unchanged. When Tipp City, OH needed support for Ohio's graduation-seal requirements, Naviance wouldn't build it — they switched to SchooLinks, which did. SchooLinks migrates your historical Naviance data, connects to PowerSchool for rostering, and most districts are fully live within 60–90 days.
Every SchooLinks AI agent runs on a two-sided model. All scoring and matching is fully deterministic — grounded in validated frameworks (SOC, CIP, O*NET) and auditable by your district — while the LLM layer only interprets and writes language. It never makes a recommendation on its own, student PII is never included in AI requests, every agent is FERPA-compliant, and any agent can be turned off at the district level. It's AI you can explain to a school board.
Yes. SchooLinks is deployed across 40+ states with built-in support for CCMR, graduation seals, personalized learning plans, CTE pathways and endorsements, Portrait of a Graduate, Illinois PACE, Arizona's points-based model, eCAP, and more. State compliance becomes a live dashboard — district readiness by school, grade, and indicator (e.g., "72% on track"), with drill-down to individual students and the ability to act from the same screen. Auditors get documented, verifiable evidence instead of a spreadsheet, and new state modules are built as requirements evolve.
That's the entire design. SchooLinks is fully mobile, multilingual, and written at age-appropriate reading levels (Gunning-Fog), with a home feed that surfaces each student's next steps — so students explore careers, favorite colleges, and complete assessments unprompted. As Patti Coulter at Liberty Hill ISD (TX) put it: "For other platforms, students only logged in when they were told to because the systems were so cumbersome." When students self-engage, counselors spend their time advising instead of chasing logins.
Yes — end to end. SchooLinks includes a real employer-facing Industry Partner Portal (not just a data field), opportunity sourcing, application and placement workflows, verified experience-hour tracking, and digital badging — all mapped to CTE pathways and state WBL reporting. It replaces the spreadsheets and one-off tools districts usually stitch together to run work-based learning at scale.
Yes. SchooLinks includes full college application and transcript management — application tracking, recommendation-letter workflows, Common App and Parchment integration, bulk sending, scattergrams, and admissions-probability calculators — then goes further with career, work-based learning, SEL, alumni tracking, and AI agents. Everything Naviance covers, plus everything it doesn't.
The full K-12 journey, with age-appropriate experiences from elementary through high school — and lifetime alumni access so graduates keep building their profiles after they leave. It's one continuous student record, from a 5th-grader's first career exploration all the way to postsecondary outcome tracking.
Most districts are fully deployed in 60–90 days — including SIS integration (PowerSchool, Infinite Campus, Skyward, Aeries), data migration, scope-and-sequence setup, staff training, and student onboarding — with a dedicated implementation specialist for every district, not a self-serve guide. SchooLinks is SOC 2, FERPA, and COPPA compliant, and there's no premium support tier or paywalled features: every district gets the full platform and full support.
