Testimonials
“We have a lot of shared staff due to a large number of small schools. It has helped us maximize our staff schedules, especially for our shared staff. Whether that’s a shared alternating day or a shared split day, we came up with ways to best serve students in every scenario. Our schedules are super tight in some instances and some disciplines and I don’t know what we would do without DMschedules. The ability to see at a glance how a teacher has been utilized and how students have been served in every area has helped us align our staffing requests with the needs of our students.”
Jessica Kilmetz, Assistant Superintendent, Phoenixville Area School District (PA)
“We had inconsistencies in schedules among our four elementary schools. We also weren’t sharing elementary staff in an efficient way - at a time we were just filling school needs without actually looking how we utilize staff shared between buildings and if their schedules were distributed evenly across schools. With DMSchedules, we streamlined staff allocation, improved efficiency, and achieved better budget balance.”
Stephen O’Toole, Assistant Superintendent of Instruction and Curriculum, Great Valley School District (PA)
“We have such a variety across our K-8 schools, both is school size and staffing. DMSchedules provided a clear, big-picture view of all schedules. It enabled us to implement best scheduling practices across schools and leverage staff more strategically and efficiently.”
Emily Kleintop, Assistant Superintendent, The Diocese of Allentown (PA)
"DMSchedules is the greatest thing. You have no idea how happy this makes me. I love it!"
Deirdre Amerling, Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction, Yorktown Central School District (NY)
“The team and I are excited to be able to use the program. My principal peers are raving about it.”
Dr. Efrain Martinez, Principal, Conrad Fischer Elementary School (IL)
"We displayed the scheduling program on the whiteboard and could easily move blocks around until we came up with a schedule that worked for the general education teachers, intervention teachers, and special education teachers. It has helped staff feel they were a big part of developing the schedule for next year, which has improved morale and teacher buy-in. Having the schedules complete before the end of this school year helps us hit the ground running in September, so students receive support from day 1."
Rob Spino, Principal, New Fairfield Public Schools (CT)
"I liked the collaboration with all parties involved throughout the process and the immediate feedback when concerns arose. The ease of entering your time frames and then the ability to move classes around to ensure all sections are scheduled is fantastic.”
Sherrell Edmond, Principal, Dublin City Schools (OH)
"DMSchedules has become very helpful for our special services team - instead of doing multiple Google Docs, they now have a master schedule template right in front of them, organized by days, and can see where they can pull or push in at a glance. The software brought all of the information necessary to all of the stakeholders in the building to one location, and we don’t have to go searching place by place for everybody’s individual schedule.”
Austin Johnson, Barrington 220 School District (IL)
"DMSchedules is extremely helpful and easy to navigate. Building our schedule this year is going much better than in the past.”
Shanna Aubin, Art Teacher, Grand Isle Supervisory Union (VT)
"DMSchedules has been extremely helpful to use at our school. I am so grateful for this tool. It was integral in getting WIN (What I Need) time and intervention time for our students so that it is built into the schedule.”
Beth Serrano, Principal, St. John Vianney School, Diocese of Allentown (PA)
"Our teachers and administrators really appreciated the flexibility, clarity, and ease of use that DMGroup provided with the “We Build It” solution. We are looking forward to continuing to craft a schedule that meets the needs of our students and faculty.”
Alex Gelman, Director of Operations, Corlears School, New York City (NY)
"I am in love with this program!”
Jaci Garvey, Principal, St. Edwards Catholic School (MN)
"After looking at the schedule, we are very impressed… With the first go at it, we are pleased with the staggered approach to scheduling for reading, writing, math, science/social studies, and WIN.”
Marcia Laput, Instructional Coach, Milford Public Schools (CT)
"The DMGroup staff was incredible to work with, quick to respond, and explained things clearly so I understood.”
Libby Burton, former Lower School Dean of Students, Minnehaha Academy (MN)
"I liked the drag-and-drop feature. This allowed us to ensure that everyone was assigned the required subjects. I also liked that I could change the assigned special teacher by a simple dropdown. It also helps that we could download an individual teachers' schedule so our office staff can easily "track down" a student that is at a special (without too much cross-referencing).”
Jennifer Van Duyn, Principal, Sioux Falls School District (SD)
"The capabilities of what we’ve been able to do with the recent schedules and the support we've provided to our staff is impressive. What we managed to complete in just two days took others a week and a half or more.”
Micah Korb, Principal, Barrington 220 School District (IL)
"Thanks for creating an amazing product. I have never enjoyed creating the schedule as much as this year!”
Shawn Gonyaw, Principal, Marion Cross School (VT)
"The software and service are excellent! I can easily manipulate changes and share them with staff and colleagues outside our school. The greatest impact is in time saved and the ability to collaborate with others.”
