LastBell

Dismissal and student safety for schools

Every student, accounted for.

From the last bell to the last pickup, LastBell gives your office, teachers, drivers and parents the same live answer: where each student is, and how they are getting home.

  • Web app for the office
  • LastBell for staff
  • LastBell Parent for parents

Dismissal without the chaos

  • No more radios and paper lists

    Every bus, car line and walker list lives on staff phones and updates the moment a student leaves.

  • Every handoff checked

    Each pickup is checked against the family's approved adults. A hold on a student shows in red to anyone who could release them.

  • Fewer calls to the office

    Absences, late arrivals and pickup changes come in through the parent app, are answered by the office, and appear on every list.

  • One record, everyone

    The office, teachers, drivers and parents see the same day, so nobody works from yesterday's sheet.

Made for each person's moment

  • The office

    A web app on any computer or tablet, built for a busy front office.

  • Teachers and duty staff

    Attendance and dismissal on their own phone, one tap per student.

  • Bus drivers

    A route list that knows who should be on board, and a check that the bus is empty.

  • Parents

    Where their child is now and how they get home, in their own language.

Run the day from the office

  • Dismissal board

    Every bus, the car line, walkers and aftercare on one screen, with what needs attention first.

  • One inbox for parents

    Absences, late arrivals, pickup changes and account requests in one place, each answered in a tap.

  • Find any student

    Where a student is right now and how they get home, in seconds.

  • Reports and audit trail

    A report for every day, and a record of who changed what, and when.

  • Your roster, already there

    Import from PowerSchool, Blackbaud, Veracross, FACTS, OneRoster or a spreadsheet. Staff sign in with their school Google or Microsoft account.

  • Front desk and aftercare

    Visitor check in, timed hall passes, and aftercare attendance and billing, when your school wants them.
