FERPA non-compliant

Privacy policy explicitly outlines data practices non-compliant with FERPA law. Otherwise, it looks like a cool idea.

Great tool

This app makes my job so much easier. Great for keeping track of behaviors, attendance, and correspondences among team and family members. It is nice to have all information in one place. I highly recommend this app!

Time saver!

This app has streamlined nearly all of the data I need to collect on each of my students. Some stuff the district requires, like attendance, IEP goals, and other useful information for facilitating meetings with parents, is all accounted for here. Other things, like the ability to create lists for info like meltdown and behavior triggers, positive classroom points, and even personal victories are really what makes this stand out among other apps. Plus I can use this on my computer too, to print stuff out, which is a huge bonus.

Love this app!

Birdhouse is a tremendous time saver and brilliant way to take and organize daily notes. I really love that I can share student summaries, data, and reports easily with parents and my team. Scheduling alerts and reminders have been so helpful, it can be hard to stay on top of everything! All of the features are easy on the eyes and simple to follow on both my phone and computer. So glad I came across Birdhouse, I recommend their tools to everyone!

Saved me so much time!

Great app. I use it to record notes here and there about what's going on with students and working with parents and staff, and then I have those notes easily available when there are questions or doing reports. And scheduling things I want to record regularly and using notifications makes it so easy. I'm excited to see what else comes as the app continues to get better and do more.
