💡 Simplified tech stacks. One trusted access point. Students ready for whatever’s next. At the National Rural Education Association's NFARE 2025 Conference, we had powerful conversations with rural and small district leaders focused on finding balance — simplifying their digital ecosystems, supporting teachers who juggle multiple subjects, and preparing students for a fast-changing world. One message came through clearly: when educators have one reliable place for digital learning, it makes a real difference in how classrooms run and how teachers feel supported. ✨ We also loved co-hosting a packed reception with our friends at Discovery Education, bringing together educators and leaders for great conversation, collaboration, and community. 📸 And if you stopped by the Clever photobooth, we hope you left with a keepsake and a smile that reminds you of the inspiring work you do every day. Thank you to everyone who made NFARE 2025 such a meaningful experience. We can’t wait to see you again in San Antonio, Texas, October 19–21, 2026! 🤠

We’re heading to the SETDA Conference in Arlington, VA to talk about the future of digital learning. At Clever, we believe that education technology should be both diverse and connected – not fragmented. Are you leading the charge on identity management, mitigating the risks of fragmented security, and doing all that you can to protect student data? We want to connect with you. 👋 Meet our leadership team—Chief Product Officer Jamie Reffell, VP of Sales Dominic Via, and Head of National Education Partnerships Jeff Carlson—at the Homecoming Reception on Monday, November 3. We're eager to drive meaningful change in education, together.

Fragmented data systems don’t just create burdens on edtech engineering teams, they create friction for the people you serve: educators, students, and your own developers. The complexity of integrations shouldn't be the biggest blocker to a great user experience. We need to simplify it, modernize data exchange, and finally deliver the access that schools have been promised. Erin Mote, CEO and Co-Founder of InnovateEDU, cuts right to the heart of the issue: "If you're not an edtech company who's on top of the secure and seamless exchange of data across systems, not only are you NOT a modern data system, you're NOT delivering on the promise of integrations and interoperability in our community." We are committed to being your strategic partner in making this future a reality. Our goal is simple: to make integrations effortless so great edtech can scale faster and your teams can focus on their core mission. Imagine your ideal integration future. Let's build it together. #EdTech #EdTechStrategy #K12 #ProductDevelopment #InnovateEDU

What's your biggest password challenge? Forgotten? Age-appropriate? Tickets? Tell us in one word. Enforcing modern password policies for students as young as five can get tricky. In this session with K12 SIX, join Mark Racine and Sriram Seshadri to play the "Password Policy Game." You decide: Enforce, Modify, or Remove? See you then!

The message from Ohio district leaders at EdTech Leaders Alliance (ETLA) 2025 was clear: Protecting student digital identity can't wait. We heard the urgent need for better security, especially as only 5% of students are protected by MFA. But traditional security often conflicts with classroom reality—relying on personal devices that are increasingly restricted by cell phone policies. The constant message we heard from Midwest leaders: Security must be simple, device-free, and classroom-friendly. That's why we’re seeing so much excitement for Clever Classroom MFA! Our age-appropriate, device-free authentication methods are ready to fill the security gap without slowing down learning. Big thanks to all the Ohio leaders, especially those who chatted with Karina Osorio and Becky George! We’re excited to help you make security foundational, not frustrating.

What does modernization look like in your K-12 schools? According Julia Fallon (SETDA) you should be asking: - How are we redesigning systems to ensure tools can communicate with each other? - How is our policy and procurement evolving to reward interoperability, accessibility, and impact? Read Julia's op-ed on why the time for K-12 modernization is now: https://lnkd.in/ggXBQ8RW

How do outdated password policies put students at risk? Are there other authentication methods that make more sense in the digital classroom? On October 28, Douglas Levin from K12 SIX will host Sriram Seshadri, Head of Security at Clever, and Mark Racine, former CIO of Boston Public Schools, for a webinar on why “Passwords Must Go: The Future of Authentication in K-12.” As a thanks for taking steps toward being a Data Defender for your school, you’ll also be entered into our Cybersecure Raffle when you register to attend!
