Case Study: How Salem-Keizer built a synchronous online K-12 program that drives student engagement

Salem-Keizer School District serves over 40,000 students and leads one of the only fully synchronous K-12 online programs in the country. With more than 1,000 students attending structured, live classes every day, the district set out to create an experience that mirrors the structure and connection of in-person school.

But legacy video platforms weren’t built for teaching. Teachers needed better ways to facilitate collaboration, monitor participation, and manage virtual classrooms. And with funding tied to attendance, district leaders needed a solution that could make a measurable impact.
