Case Study: Pickerington Local School District achieves safer, more engaging, and streamlined digital learning with GoGuardian

Pickerington Local School District - Customer Case Study

Pickerington Local School District, a 16-school district in Pickerington, Ohio serving about 11,200 students, needed to unify its ed‑tech and ensure student safety and privacy across a 1:1 Chromebook deployment. After an unsatisfactory experience with another provider, the district selected GoGuardian — starting with GoGuardian Admin for filtering and monitoring and later adding GoGuardian Teacher, GoGuardian Beacon, Pear Deck, and Edulastic to meet instructional and safety needs.

GoGuardian delivered an integrated suite that provided digital guardrails, classroom management, engagement tools, assessment consolidation, and 24/7 self‑harm alerts. The GoGuardian solution helped staff quickly pivot to remote learning, reduced teacher grading time so educators can focus on instruction, and enabled staff to interrupt multiple active suicide attempts and connect many more students with support — all while meeting Pickerington’s strict data‑privacy requirements.
