Erath Excels Academy Keeps District Safe With Quickscreen by Luminare

Erath Excels Academy, a charter district serving Huston Academy and Coastal Horizons, needed a fast, HIPAA-compliant way to screen students, staff, and visitors for COVID-19 instead of time-consuming manual checks. The district selected Quickscreen by Luminare to provide a documented, customizable screening process that could be rolled out quickly across campuses.

Luminare’s Quickscreen sends automated morning reminders, enforces check-in before entry, and offers customizable questions and fun features like "animal of the day" for easy verification. The tool reduced screening time from 2–3 minutes to about 5 seconds per student, produced four Red Screens in the first four days (one confirmed COVID-19 case), improved documentation and HIPAA compliance, and helped limit potential exposure district-wide.
