From the CEO
Greetings,
August was a busy month for ClassWallet. We signed 3 more Florida school districts and a new district in California. We are excited to be working with the newly signed Chan Zuckerberg Initiative on some of the great programs they are doing with schools in Northern California. Some PTAs and nonprofit organizations have signed-on rounding out a diverse client mix joining us the last month of summer. We’ll be starting the new school year in over 850 schools and can’t wait to hit the ground running!
Exciting News
Polk County School District – Country’s 30th Largest Signs with ClassWallet
The larger the district, the larger the administrative overhead costs associated with tracking decentralized purchasing processes (purchase orders, receipts, reimbursements, etc). Polk County School District, the country’s 30th largest school district, adopted ClassWallet to eliminate paper receipts and minimize those costs using the platform to streamline funding allocations to classroom teachers.

ClassWallet Releases Paperless Reimbursement Feature
When it comes to purchases that fall outside the practicality of ERP and PO systems, districts and schools have a myriad of piecemeal processes to manage, one being reimbursement.
