Case Study: Frankfort School District 157C achieves streamlined, compliant payroll and eliminates paper timecards with Skyward's School Business Suite

Frankfort School District 157C - Customer Case Study

Frankfort School District 157C (enrollment 2,500) was struggling with paper-based timesheets, multiple spreadsheets and outdated finance software that made payroll slow, error-prone and at risk of noncompliance. To address these challenges, the district chose Skyward and its School Business Suite to modernize finance and HR processes.

Skyward implemented its School Business Suite—including True Time, Employee Access and Payroll/time-off features—eliminating paper timecards, enabling online approvals, and allowing purchasing card imports instead of manual entry. As a result, payroll processing time was reduced from about a day-and-a-half to one day, employee access to pay stubs and time-off is available 24/7, and the district reports improved efficiency and compliance since adopting Skyward.
