How One Director Got Her Fridays Back
KEYS Director Sarah Urban on moving registration and payments online after 42 years on paper.
A Growing Program That Outgrew Paper
KEYS (Keep Elementary Youth Safe) serves kindergarten through sixth grade before and after school in New Jersey's Audubon Public School District. After 42 years of paper, pen, cash and checks, the program grew from 20 to 30 kids to more than 80 a day and needed a different system.

What Changed for KEYS After Switching?
0:00 Fridays, Before and After
My Fridays were my busy day, where I would be from like seven to 4:30, just non-stop going through our attendance slips and making rosters and everything. Now when I do them on Fridays, it's maybe an hour.
0:39 Pick-Your-Days Registration
Parents are able to pick certain days, certain times, as many days as they want. And every other program that we looked into, you had to sign up for the full month at a time, morning and PM. If you didn't need it, regardless, you were still signing up for it and paying for it.
1:07 From a White Card to a Secure Website
It was just on a white card that pretty much anyone could access. So now that it's all on a website where it's secure, it's been very nice because not everyone can just see all of that.
1:25 Back With the Kids
The last three years, once I became director, I barely knew the kids' names. This year, it's great because I don't have to be sitting at my desk non-stop. I go to both schools all the time now and I can hang out with all the kids.
