Mid-Sized District Enrollment: Streamlined Applications and Lottery Workflows for Families

A North Carolina public school district has used SchoolMint since November 2024 to manage applications and lottery workflows.

The district focused on improving family engagement while reducing administrative burden for staff responsible for processing annual enrollment applications.

The Opportunity

The district needed an easier way for families to complete enrollment applications and a more efficient process for staff to review and manage submissions. With limited data maturity, visibility and workflow consistency were priorities.

Managing annual enrollment applications can strain small administrative teams, especially when families need clear guidance and timely communication. The district wanted to simplify how families engage with the application process while improving internal efficiency for processing and tracking submissions.

With the district still early in its use of SchoolMint, the team also needed a workflow that could support current application volume and provide a foundation for future measurement.

The Solution

SchoolMint Enroll supports district application and lottery workflows in one system.

• Application workflows help families complete enrollment steps more consistently.
• Lottery workflows support structured placement processes where required.
• Centralized processing improves staff efficiency for reviewing and managing submissions.
• One platform creates a repeatable process the district can build on.

The Results

• 1 centralized system improved consistency for staff processing enrollment applications.
