Case Study: Mountain Home School District achieves faster payroll, streamlined purchasing, and cost savings with Skyward

Mountain Home School District - Customer Case Study

Mountain Home School District (enrollment 3,850) in Mountain Home, Idaho struggled with slow, fragmented financial management—payroll staff routinely spent a day and a half reconciling voids and reissues, year-to-year payroll access required logging in and out, and purchase-order approvals were cumbersome. To modernize its business office the district moved to Skyward, implementing Skyward’s payroll module and School Business Suite.

Skyward delivered an integrated financial and HR solution that sped up payroll processing, provided single-view multi-year payroll history, enabled online tracking of employee deduction and pay changes, simplified purchase-order submission and approval, and offered Excel exports for reporting. As a result, Mountain Home School District achieved measurable ROI with reduced processing steps and time, lower support and supply costs, improved record-keeping, and sustained gains in office productivity.
