Connect all your communities. Teachers want to be empowered to use the web to enhance instruction and engage students. "Digital native" students want to access class work online. Parents want on-demand insight and involvement in their children's education. Taxpayers and the media want transparency into how your district is realizing its vision for school improvement.

In an era of transformative change for K-12 education — when technology has extended learning far beyond classroom walls and long past the three o'clock bell — the center of the educational universe has shifted from inside the school to the extended community. Now, one strategic platform connects all K-12 constituents to enable collective success — Centricity.

Much more than content management. Community management. Centricity is an all-in-one, user-centric platform that puts each and all district and school constituents on the same page. Unlike homegrown, piecemeal district websites or content management tools, Centricity seamlessly integrates online communication and community in a single platform to:

• Inform your communities. Through Centricity, information flows freely, securely and immediately via district, school, class, activity and organization websites, as well as email and e-Alerts — empowering each individual in the community and the community as a whole to contribute to and collaborate to achieve success.
• Engage your communities. Real-time, personalized and on-demand access to essential information. Higher levels of user interaction and social learning. Web 2.0 social networks, blogs and podcasts. Community forums and surveys. These are the currency of online engagement — for educators, students, families and community members alike. These are just some of the ways Centricity enables richer, more constant engagement.
• Energize your communities. With a connected community powered by Centricity, you're uniquely equipped to enable broader collaboration, improve communications, enhance operational efficiency, and encourage broad adoption and participation by administrators, teachers, families and students.
  

Greater functionality. Greater ease of use. Greater performance. Centricity achieves all of this — and delivers extraordinary value to its customers — through its unified technology platform. Bringing the market's highest level of Web 2.0 functionality and interactivity to Centricity, this platform enables users to use a host of functions — personalization, blogs, forums, discussion groups, user ratings/comments and more. Through this platform, as well as the most comprehensive, robust and flexible feature set on the market, Centricity gives you everything you need to effectively connect everyone.
