Case Study: Cheshire Academy unifies day and boarding student visibility with Orah

Cheshire Academy unifies 375 students across day and boarding with Orah

Cheshire Academy, a boarding and day school in Connecticut, faced a challenge with fragmented systems for tracking student attendance and well-being. Their previous setup used Blackbaud for day school attendance and Orah for boarding, which created operational friction, blind spots in student data, and confusion for faculty and parents. They needed a unified platform to gain a complete view of all students.

By fully integrating its day and boarding operations into the Orah platform, Cheshire Academy achieved a single source of truth for student attendance and pastoral notes. The solution provided by Orah resulted in improved visibility into the whole student, stronger communication between academic and residential teams, and reduced duplicate data entry. This led to a more connected and supportive school community where faculty could better understand and respond to student needs.
