Case Study: Yorkville Community Unit School District 115 improves student online safety with Gaggle

Yorkville Community Unit School District 115 flags 6 student safety concerns with Gaggle

Yorkville Community Unit School District 115, a district serving over 6,200 students in Illinois, faced the challenge of safely monitoring student Google accounts after implementing a 1:1 device program. They needed a proactive solution to keep students safe online, which led them to the vendor Gaggle and its safety management service for Google.

The district implemented Gaggle to take a proactive approach to student safety. The results included Gaggle alerting the district to approximately six different instances of legitimate concern that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. This allowed administrators to intervene quickly, contact parents, and get students the help they needed, with the director of technology stating there are students alive today because of Gaggle.
