Case Study: Bonneville Joint School District No. 93 achieves a 96% reduction in student registration time with Laserfiche

How Bonneville Joint School District No. 93 Integrated Laserfiche with PowerSchool

Bonneville Joint School District No. 93, the fifth largest district in Idaho with nearly 12,000 students across 24 schools, faced a heavy administrative burden each year as school secretaries manually processed 11 paper forms per student—taking 20–30 minutes per child to enter data into the PowerSchool student information system. The volume of new and returning student paperwork strained staff time and created opportunities for data entry errors and mailing costs.

By implementing Laserfiche Forms and Workflow integrated with PowerSchool, the district moved registration online with dynamic forms, a hidden school-secretary lookup for routing, and an approval step that launches a workflow to populate three PowerSchool tables. Reregistration now auto-fills via student ID, workflows update or create records and notify secretaries, and the process time dropped by 96% (from ~30 minutes to 1 minute), improving accuracy, keeping PowerSchool current, and eliminating paper and postage costs.
