You can fully configure the results page to highlight the most important information to your families, such as address, school type, grade levels, report card score, distance, application deadline, and more!
Intuitive, Interactive Map
Parents can see where schools are located at a glance. The map can also be configured to show district boundaries, neighborhoods, or walk zones. You can customize and color pins to distinguish between school types (district/charter/private/etc), grade levels, or any other categorical data in the profile.
Detailed School Profiles
