WHY RED ROVER
Red Rover brings every K-12 HR workload together on one platform, with products built from the ground up to work together, not pieced together over time.
Positions, locations, and employee information are set up once and shared across Red Rover, so each product starts with what your district already knows.
Employee information follows them from hiring and onboarding through absences, time, professional development, and more, building one record instead of starting over at every step. Nothing re-entered, nothing left behind.
What happens in one Red Rover product sets the next step in motion in another; a teacher's absence creates a substitute assignment, and completed PD posts its credits to the employee record.
Absence Management + Time Tracking
A teacher reports an absence and a substitute accepts the assignment. When the substitute clocks in, their time stays tied to the absence and assignment that created it, and the teacher’s timesheet already reflects the day away. That means less reconciliation before payroll.
Absence Reported → Substitute Assigned → Time Captured → Approved → Ready for Payroll
Hiring + Records
When a candidate accepts an offer, their application details, onboarding forms, and documents carry forward into their employee record. From there, that record is ready for absence management, time tracking, and professional development. Everything stored in one place, the only place anyone has to look.
Applicant → Offer → Onboarding → Employee Record → Ready for Every Product
PDM + Absence Management + Records
When an employee enrolls in PD during the school day, their absence is created and opened for substitute coverage. Completed PD stays on the employee record for credits and renewal, and with Time Tracking, those hours land on the timesheet already tied to the PD that generated them.
PD Request → Approval → Absence + Coverage → Attendance + Completion → Credit Toward Credentials
Information carries forward across Red Rover, so your team spends less time re-entering what the district already knows.
HR, payroll, principals, and supervisors work from the same information inside one platform, with fewer exports, spreadsheets, and follow-up emails along the way.
See an employee's absences, time, professional development, and records together, with reporting that gives district leaders a complete view.
Employees, substitutes, principals, and HR teams get a familiar experience across the work they do in Red Rover.
Yes, that makes HR easier.
WHY DISTRICTS CHOOSE RED ROVER
Red Rover is built to support real district work, from bell schedules and extra duty to substitute coverage and credential renewal.
District feedback shapes where Red Rover goes next. Improvements ship regularly, and early-access programs give districts a voice in new features before they reach everyone.
Red Rover keeps evolving alongside the districts we serve. New products, features, and improvements build on the same foundation, so the platform gets stronger without becoming more complicated.
Technology is only part of the Red Rover experience. The People behind it are just as important, from the first conversation through every day that follows.
Thousands of school districts across the country have chosen Red Rover.
By using Red Rover Records, we’ve eliminated paper forms, Google Forms, and JotForms by centralizing everything into one streamlined system.
