Case Study: Edge High School boosts make-up class completion with Minga

How Edge High School skillfully organizes student schedules, helping at-risk kids stay in class longer and take charge of their own flexible learning paths

Edge High School, an alternative charter school supporting at-risk youth, was overwhelmed by the administrative burden of managing its flexible, self-paced student schedules. Relying on paper-based systems for attendance, tardiness, and hall passes was time-consuming and error-prone, preventing staff from focusing on student support. The school turned to Minga for a solution, specifically adopting its FlexTime module to tackle these challenges.

By implementing Minga's digital platform, the school automated its key processes. The FlexTime scheduler streamlined make-up class management, while digital IDs automated tardy tracking and digital hall passes provided oversight of student movement. This resulted in a 40% increase in completed make-up lessons within eight weeks and an 11% average monthly decrease in tardiness. Minga's solution saved administrators significant time, allowing them to redirect their focus from paperwork to directly supporting students.
