What is Alma SIS?

Alma helps PreK-12 education organizations replace disconnected systems and administrative friction with a secure, configurable platform built around trusted student information. It serves independent and charter schools, school networks, districts of every size, state education agencies, departments of education, and other organizations supporting students. Schools and districts use Alma to coordinate student records, attendance, scheduling, grading, transcripts, report cards, admissions, enrollment, communications, payments, analytics, and state-reporting processes. Instructional tools support traditional, standards-based, and progressive approaches while giving educators clearer access to assignments, curriculum, learning targets, and student progress. For districts and networks, Alma brings school information together for greater consistency and visibility without forcing every community into the same operational model. Configurable workflows, roles, permissions, reporting, and integrations help organizations work within their existing structures and technology environments. Alma also contributes deep state-level expertise in education data collection, validation, interoperability, reporting, analytics, and information management. This connects the work happening in classrooms and schools with the information districts and state organizations need. Alma supports education organizations across 44 states and 61 countries, with data that impacts more than six million students.
