Wayne, Pa., March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Frontline Education, a leading provider of administration software purpose-built for K–12 school districts, today announced the launch of its new Recruiting & Hiring system, designed to eliminate breakdowns between recruiting, hiring and onboarding so districts can fill roles faster and keep candidates moving through the process.

Joel Sackett, Chief Product Officer at Frontline Education, said the built-from-scratch system is an important step in the company’s broader platform strategy.

“Districts don’t have a hiring problem—they have a breakdown problem,” Sackett said. “Progress gets lost between steps, and teams are forced to redo work. We connect those steps into a single process so teams don’t have to start over or chase down information. This launch also reflects the direction we’re moving as a company, toward a more connected Frontline platform that brings together our People, Student and Business solutions. When everything works better together, districts can operate more efficiently and better support their schools.”

The launch also reflects a broader period of investment and expansion at Frontline as the company continues to strengthen its technology platform and prioritize customer engagement.

Matt Strazza, Chief Executive Officer of Frontline Education, said the company has been making significant investments to better support school districts as they navigate increasing operational complexity.
