About Frontline Education
Frontline Education is a leading provider of software solutions designed to help K–12 school systems manage their human capital, business operations, and student data with greater insight, efficiency, and impact. Serving more than 10,000 districts nationwide, Frontline’s mission is to empower school leaders with the tools, information, and guidance they need to make informed decisions that positively influence staff, students, and communities.
About the Data & Analytics Business
Frontline’s Data & Analytics business is a standalone unit within the organization, dedicated to unlocking the full potential of district data. Our analytics platforms give school systems the clarity and confidence to move from information to action—enabling smarter, faster, and more transparent decisions across every dimension of district leadership.
The Data & Analytics suite includes:
- Business Analytics, helping district finance and operations leaders forecast, plan, and optimize resource allocation;
- Comparative Analytics, providing districts with benchmarking data to measure performance relative to peers;
- Student Analytics, which turns academic and engagement data into actionable insight for improving learning, equity, and achievement; and
- Location Analytics, which leverages GIS technology to visualize student, staffing, and facility data on interactive maps for strategic boundary and resource planning.
Together, these solutions embody our mission: to help district leaders make sense of their data, communicate clearly, and act confidently.
