📚Curriculum that supports your enrollment goals
Drive stronger family commitment with Tuition Agreements
Tuition Agreements help set clear expectations with families by outlining billing plan rates, due dates, and school payment policies. They reduce confusion, prevent disputes, and encourage on-time, streamlined payments. Easily apply them to both existing and new billing plans in brightwheel–check out this Loom to see how easy it is to get started.
Save time with enhanced field linking in custom and fillable Forms
When families complete a form, you can instantly update student profile information with just one click. We’ve expanded the available field mappings, which now include custom fields and emergency contact information, so you can capture and sync even more information. Watch this Loom to see how easy it is to keep profiles up to date.
Create more robust Fillable Documents for enrollment faster
With new field types like drawn digital signatures (including multiple signatures), single select dropdowns, and checkboxes, your fillable forms are now more powerful and customizable. Keyboard shortcuts also speed up form creation, saving you time during the busiest season. Watch this Loom to see how to streamline and strengthen your paperwork process.
Attract families with a curriculum built for connection
During enrollment season, families want programs that keep them informed and connected. Experience Curriculum is a complete, easy-to-use system with daily lesson plans and hands-on materials. When combined with brightwheel, it makes sharing children’s learning journeys simple and helps foster strong family partnerships.
