Education

Keep families and staff in the loop

From permission slips to faculty contracts, schools run on forms that too often go missing. SignTheDoc reaches every family and staff member digitally, so nothing gets lost at the bottom of a backpack.

Getting it right

What Education teams need to watch

Student record retention

Enrollment and permission records inherit the retention rules applying to student records, which frequently extend past graduation and, for minors, past the age of majority. Configure retention accordingly.

Parental authority

A form signed by a minor is generally not enforceable. Route to a parent or guardian as the signing party, with the student as an additional acknowledging signer where appropriate.

Accessibility obligations

Digital forms that cannot be completed with a screen reader exclude families and create exposure under the ADA and Section 504. Test with assistive technology and offer forms in the languages your families actually speak.

How to start well

What the education teams with the best results did first.

Bulk-send enrollment packets rather than chasing forms individually
Send permission slips by both email and text — reach matters more than channel
Track who has not responded and send one-tap reminders before the deadline
Build a separate template for anything requiring guardian signature

Connects with your stack
