Frequently Asked Questions

Everything educational institutions need to know about FERPA-compliant communications

Is FoneSwift FERPA compliant?

Yes, FoneSwift is fully FERPA compliant and designed specifically for educational institutions. We implement comprehensive privacy protections including end-to-end encryption of all student data, role-based access controls so only authorized personnel access student information, detailed audit logs tracking all communications and data access, parent/guardian verification before sharing student information, and secure data storage with regular security audits. We treat student privacy with the highest level of protection and work with your compliance officers to ensure our implementation meets your specific requirements.

How does FoneSwift integrate with our Student Information System (SIS)?

FoneSwift has pre-built integrations with major SIS platforms including PowerSchool, Infinite Campus, Skyward, Blackbaud, Ellucian Banner, and Colleague. The integration is bi-directional: we pull student demographics, enrollment data, and contact information from your SIS, and we can write back communication logs and engagement data. Most SIS integrations are completed in 2-5 business days. For custom or legacy systems, we offer API and file-based integration options. Our team handles all technical implementation.

Can parents and students respond to messages?

Absolutely! FoneSwift supports full two-way communication. Parents and students can confirm receipt of messages, respond with questions, schedule appointments, update contact preferences, and request callbacks from staff. For example, when a parent receives an attendance alert, they can reply with an explanation. When students get appointment reminders, they can confirm or request to reschedule. This creates real dialogue and reduces administrative burden on your staff while improving engagement.

How quickly can we send emergency alerts to the entire campus?

FoneSwift can deliver emergency alerts to thousands of contacts in under 5 minutes. The system simultaneously sends voice calls, SMS messages, and emails to ensure maximum reach. You get real-time delivery confirmations showing who received the message and who may need alternative contact methods. Emergency templates can be pre-configured for common scenarios (weather closures, security lockdowns, evacuations) so alerts go out instantly. Many campuses use FoneSwift as their primary emergency notification system because of its speed and reliability.

What about communicating with parents who speak different languages?

FoneSwift supports 50+ languages with natural, native-level fluency. The system can automatically detect language preferences from your SIS or previous interactions, then deliver messages in the appropriate language. This is especially valuable for diverse school districts - you can ensure every parent receives school communications in their preferred language without hiring multilingual staff. Common languages include Spanish, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Arabic, Tagalog, Korean, and many more.

How can FoneSwift help with student retention?

FoneSwift helps improve retention through proactive engagement: early alert systems identify at-risk students based on attendance or engagement patterns, automated check-ins with students who miss classes or assignments, tutoring and academic support service reminders, financial aid deadline notifications to prevent dropouts due to holds, counseling appointment coordination for students facing challenges, and re-enrollment campaigns for students who stopped out. Many institutions see 10-15% improvements in retention rates by using FoneSwift to catch and support struggling students before they leave.

Do you offer special pricing for schools and universities?

Yes! We offer education-focused pricing that respects institutional budgets. Plans start at $199/month for smaller campuses with volume discounts for larger institutions and districts. Multi-campus systems receive additional discounts. There are no setup fees and we offer flexible payment terms to align with academic and fiscal year cycles. We also provide special rates for K-12 public schools and community colleges. Contact us for a customized quote based on your student population and communication needs.

Can FoneSwift help with admissions and enrollment management?

Absolutely! FoneSwift is powerful for admissions teams: automated follow-up sequences for prospective students at each stage of the funnel, application status updates and missing document reminders, financial aid deadline notifications to prevent melt, accepted student yield campaigns with personalized outreach, campus visit scheduling and confirmation, waitlist management and offers, and deposit deadline reminders. Admissions teams using FoneSwift typically see 20-30% increases in enrollment yield because no prospective student falls through the cracks. The personal touch of voice communication combined with automation creates powerful results.
