School records include many sensitive bits of information, from employee payroll details to student grades and detention history. Because of this, it is important to make sure that files and folders are safe and only seen by trusted individuals through a school records management system such as YellowFolder.

YellowFolder is solely focused on K-12 schools, so every feature is made to ensure education document management is quick and efficient. The way the web-based application is set up, school employees are able to use automatic file creation and one-click document uploading in the electronic filing process. Restrictions can be placed on folders to limit access to certain individuals, as well, so private documents are kept that way. Though, people who have permission to access files may do so from anywhere, at any time, and with any Internet-enabled device. In short, information will be available at a moment's notice, even if one is far from school.

Convenience is clearly key with YellowFolder. So it is no surprise that school records management is simplified with automatic matriculation and seamless retention, as well. Files can be individually assigned rules for retention — and destruction — so that school/education records retention laws are easy to adhere to.

YellowFolder is already the trusted electronic records management system of choice in 150 school districts across 16 states. So what are you waiting for? Join the Paperless Nation in its push toward the future! If your school gets on board, an engineer will visit your district over the first year to help implement processes sans paper and train staff to use the new YellowFolder software. The staff will also have access to a support hotline and online help tools, in case they have questions along the way.

Recycle all that old paper and redesign the storage room without filing cabinets — this is what new-school looks like. Contact YellowFolder today to figure out how your school can get started.
