Focus School Software Partners with Puyallup for SIS Transition

Focus School Software Selected by Puyallup School District
Focus School Software proudly announces its selection by Puyallup School District, the sixth-largest district in Washington, to upgrade its Student Information System (SIS), formerly known as eSchoolPlus.
The Puyallup School District serves a vibrant community of over 23,000 students across 34 educational institutions. As the last remaining eSchoolPlus adopter in the state, the district's leadership recognized the need for a modern, integrated solution to meet its future objectives, particularly as eSchoolPlus is being phased out. Following a thorough evaluation process, Focus School Software was recognized as the optimal choice, aligning perfectly with their aspirations for innovation, security, and improved operational efficiency.
"In today's educational environment, it’s vital to have more than just an academic record system; schools require a flexible and scalable platform tailored to their diverse operational and instructional requirements," stated Andrew Schmadeke, CEO of Focus School Software. "We are truly honored to partner with Puyallup and assist in realizing their vision for effective student information management for years to come."

- Scalable solutions catering to over 3.5 million students across 14 states.
- Extensive API capabilities allowing seamless integration with more than 30 third-party applications.

Implementation Timeline
Puyallup School District’s transition to Focus School Software is set to commence in 2025, with an anticipated full implementation in time for the 2026-2027 academic year.

Their emphasis on collaboration and customer service aligns seamlessly with our district’s strategic objectives."
