Total School Solutions, Inc. (“TSS”) and Helm Solutions Group, Inc. (“HSG”) announced today the release of iSchoolFinder.com Version 3 to aid school districts in forecasting future student enrollments with a web-based solution that leverages Google Maps technology.
Schools and parents have enjoyed the ease-of-use found in the earlier versions of iSchoolFinder.com for locating appropriate schools for students based on a student’s home address. This new version incorporates current year enrollment data and projects future year enrollment based on student grade level, home address and school boundaries.
Working with key personnel from the Twin Rivers Unified School District in Sacramento, California, the TSS team was able to load, map and forecast 99.15% of the students accurately into the 2009-2010 school year for class size management - just in time to aid the district during crucial budget planning.
Additional versions of iSchoolFinder.com are in the works as a result of this successful joint-development partnership between TSS and HSG that was formed and announced in 2007. These will include, among others, bus route management and enhanced multi-year enrollment forecasting.
“TSS is a well respected firm in the California education industry with substantial ideas and a demonstrated expertise in all aspects of education,” said Jon Foster, CEO of HSG.
“HSG has taken our ideas and quickly turn them into successful solutions for education,” Tahir Ahad, President of TSS. “They help us design and build systems one version at a time and deliver real value to our clients.”
