What SwipeK12 is
SwipeK12 provides attendance and campus safety tools for classrooms, campuses, and school districts. Students can check in with an ID badge, barcode, or phone at a cart, kiosk, or classroom device. The web-based classroom module pre-fills attendance for teachers to verify each period, while the hall pass system sets location time limits and produces daily reports of students who exceed them. Its visitor system can scan driver’s licenses, capture names and photos, check the National Sex Offender Registry, and support custom alerts. Schools can connect SwipeK12 to student information systems, including PowerSchool and ClassLink, with nightly and real-time synchronization configurable by school. The maker says parents can receive free email or text arrival notices and view tardies and absences in the app. An iOS and Android student digital ID app and a parent app are included. SwipeK12 lists Android, iOS, and web platforms and states 99.99% system uptime. Pricing is available by request; the site invites schools to request a demo and pricing.
