Florida School District Goes Paperless by Converting 642 Paper Forms to E-Forms

Tuesday, November 7, 2017

A public school district in Florida with over 200,000 students was drowning in paper. From campus police reports to student-teacher meetings, every form was filled out by parents, students and staff, all of which had to be manually entered by school district personnel – sapping over 10,000 hours of productivity every year.

The school district turned to Image One to eliminate this costly and error-prone data entry process with electronic forms. Over the next six months, Image One converted all paper forms to electronic, eliminated 95% of data entry and ushered in a new era of productivity for the district – so they can focus on teaching and caring for students instead of pushing papers.

  • Extended access to forms across the district and to authorized third-parties
  • Seamlessly integrated eforms with with the school’s back-end system
