Case Study: Oakland Unified School District streamlines school admissions and enrollment with Blenderbox EnrollWise

Oakland Unified School District streamlines enrollment for 35,000 students with Blenderbox

The Oakland Unified School District needed to streamline its complex TK-12 public school admissions and enrollment process, which included managing waitlists and lottery placements for over 35,000 students. They partnered with Blenderbox to implement its EnrollWise product to address these logistical challenges.

Blenderbox worked to define the district's specific use cases and priority rules, standardizing information and building greater transparency into the process. This gave families a better understanding of their school choices and the likelihood of receiving an offer. The solution was recognized with multiple awards, including a Webby Honoree award, and the client reported that the tool helped create a more equitable and responsive enrollment experience.
