Red Rover Surpasses 2K Districts on HCM Platform

EXTON, Pa., Oct. 12, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Red Rover, the leading provider of human capital management (HCM) solutions for K-12 education, today announced that 15 districts across the country have purchased the full suite of products available in its purpose-built modern K-12 HCM platform. This milestone underscores the company's growing momentum as districts across the nation look to move beyond multiple outdated systems and fragmented tools in favor of a unified, intuitive platform that addresses the unique workforce and operational complexities faced by K-12 districts.

The 15 districts joining the network of more than 2,200 nationwide, including 560 new districts added this past year, represent over 740,000 district employees. With a 99% customer retention rate and a 35% year-over-year increase in new customers, Red Rover continues to demonstrate that its solutions, built to work together and with a customer-first approach to K-12 workforce management, are resonating deeply with HR leaders and administrators across the country.

The 15 districts span multiple geographic regions and represent diverse sizes and staffing needs, from large to smaller districts, but all have one thing in common: they're challenged with navigating K-12 district-specific challenges with limited staffing capacity. A sampling of these district partners includes Elizabethtown Independent Schools in Kentucky, Oak Park, River Forest School District 200 in Illinois, Sylvania City School District in Ohio, and Bourbon County Schools in Kentucky.

Each of these districts has expanded their commitment to access Red Rover's full end-to-end K-12 HCM platform capabilities, with go-lives and feature rollouts underway across areas such as absence management, hiring, time tracking, professional development, and employee records. One district, Sylvania Schools, has seen a significant improvement in efficiency and user experience since adopting Red Rover's platform. Before Red Rover, the district was using a mix of systems for talent and professional learning, with paper for nearly everything else. Now, everything sits on one platform that works together: onboarding, applications, and records all flow through one system, and staff complete forms remotely instead of coming in. The ease of use and mobile app features have been particularly impactful, with staff members actually using the app and appreciating the dedicated customer support.

Over 35% district growth cements Red Rover's position as the leading K-12 HCM platform. The company has welcomed 560 new districts in the past year alone, representing 35% year-over-year growth, and surpassing 2,000 districts now actively using capabilities within the company's K-12 HCM platform. This expanding nationwide footprint reflects the growing recognition among K-12 leaders that purpose-built, intuitive, and connected workforce management solutions are no longer a luxury to keep schools running; they are a necessity.

Among the newest districts to partner with Red Rover are Westview School Corporation in Indiana, Vandalia-Butler City School District in Ohio, and Sweeny Independent School District in Texas.

Each district's first step was choosing to partner with Red Rover. From there, they're kicking off their rollout by starting with the capabilities that help address their top K-12 workforce management needs - whether through absence management, hiring, time tracking, professional development, or employee records.
