Case Study: Centralia R-VI School District achieves rapid transcript retrieval and record security with Upland Software

School District Increases Efficiency with Electronic Records

Centralia R‑VI School District, a K–12 district in Missouri serving about 1,400 students across four campuses, faced growing pain from decades of paper records. Frequent requests for transcripts and school board packets required time‑consuming manual retrievals (about 20 minutes per transcript), strained staff resources, and raised concerns about preserving historical documents and meeting open‑records requirements.

Working with IMS, Centralia scanned thousands of pages into the FileBound cloud, creating a searchable, secure repository. Staff can now retrieve transcripts in seconds, quickly locate board‑meeting actions to comply with public‑records requests, and reduce IT and storage burdens—improving efficiency, protecting historical records, and freeing administrators to focus on higher‑value work.
