What ARCH is
ARCH is a web-based behavioral intelligence and student support platform for K–12 schools and districts. It logs behavior incidents, sorts them into tiers, and supports in-school and out-of-school suspension scheduling. Restorative reflection tools assign grade-appropriate activities based on behavior type, with live monitoring for staff. Its MTSS tools cover referrals, intervention plans, teacher check-ins, and behavior contracts. Dashboards and heatmaps show where and when incidents occur. The ODOT model includes five behavioral intelligence scores; predictive scoring is listed as an add-on. Teachers have role-scoped access to students in their assigned grade level. The Trust Center states that data is encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.2 or higher, and lists FERPA and COPPA compliance, GDPR readiness, and SOC 2 Type II certification for its infrastructure provider. Every subscription includes email support. District Premium is $20 a year, billed at $20 per student per year. Paid professional learning and a four-month School Pilot are also listed; several capabilities are add-ons.
