Summary:
6crickets is an online Expanded Learning Management solution one-stop cloud platform that gives parents/guardians access to online registration for Expanded Learning Programs by allowing parents/guardians to view the programs available with a visually appealing program summary, dates, times and locations. 6crickets platform gives staff the ability to take attendance, run enrollment/attendance reports and have student contact information easily accessible.

CARES has been using 6crickets for the 2023/2024 school year for enrollment in their programs with great success. Parents/Guardians and staff were impressed with the ease of registration.

6crickets will be continue to be used by all 23 (eighteen elementary schools, three middle schools, and two high schools) CARES Expanded Learning Program sites. 6crickets will provide training for staff. There are three components of the management system CARES Expanded Learning staff will use:

-School Dashboard Annual License Fee: Each of the 23 schools will have a school dashboard. School administrators will be able to check the real time rosters, and real time attendance of their school from there. Each school dashboard will have a school portal, parents of the school can check all the programs held at their school, and register their students from there.
-Annual license fee for Restricted School Portal Feature: The restricted school portal feature will enable the synchronization of the student data from the district's Student Information System to 6crickets.com. The student info will be auto populated to their parent's account, and the parents are not allowed to edit the SIS data on 6crickets.com to ensure that SIS is a single source of truth.
-Provider Dashboard for a two year Annual License Fee for 2024/2025 and 2025/2026 School Years: Provider Dashboard is to list programs along with images and videos, manage seasons, assign sessions to different schools, manage instructors, access real-time rosters and attendance across campuses, and generate custom rosters. It also includes the instructor dashboard for assigned instructors to take attendance for their classes.
