Homeroom Center · the school’s home base
The home base where a school’s whole year comes together.
A school year is a lot of moving parts — the roster, the calendar, the publications, picture day, the fundraisers. Homeroom Center is the center of it: one place a staff signs into where every part of the platform is a click away and works off the same shared list, instead of a separate login for every piece of the year.
The unified home base, single sign-on, the shared roster, and role-based access are live today. A customizable per-school dashboard is in early access; this page says plainly which is which.
Everything, one click away
The roster, the directory, the publications, picture day, and the fundraisers all live behind one home base, so a staff member finds the thing they need without remembering five different logins.
One shared foundation
Every tool works off the same roster a staff member signs in with or imports once, so a change in one place is right everywhere — the center keeps the whole year consistent.
Roles and permissions
A teacher, an adviser, and the front office each see what their own role allows and nothing more; student records are private, access is controlled by role, and nothing is sold or handed to an outside company.
One home base, not five logins
A school year runs on a lot of separate pieces — the roster, the calendar, the publications, picture day, the fundraisers — and it is easy for each one to end up behind its own sign-in, its own password, its own copy of who is on the roster. Homeroom Center ties the whole platform together instead: one sign-in, one roster, every tool a click away, so a school runs its year from one center rather than a browser full of tabs.
This is deliberately the operational home base, not a feature-by-feature tour of everything the platform can do. If a staff member’s question is "where do I go, and does everything talk to everything else," this page is the answer.
One shared roster underneath everything
Every tool behind the home base works off the same roster a staff member signs in with or imports once — the publications, the directory, picture day, and the fundraisers all read from that same shared list rather than each keeping its own copy. A name added once is a name every part of the platform already knows, so a school does not re-key the same roster into a second, third, and fourth tool.
Because it is one shared foundation, a change in one place is right everywhere: a student who transfers in, a staff member who joins mid-year, a schedule that shifts — the center keeps the whole year consistent instead of a staffer having to remember which system still has the old information.
Role-based access, said honestly
A teacher, an adviser, and the front office each see what their own role allows through the home base, and nothing they should not. A teacher sees the classes and students they teach; an adviser sees the publications program they run; the front office sees the operational picture the role calls for. Access is granted by role, not thrown open by default.
Student records and family contacts reached through the home base are private: they are never sold, and they are never handed to an outside company. This is a scoped, role-gated promise about who can see what through the home base — not a blanket claim that no record exists anywhere on the platform. Rosters, records, and family contacts still exist, privately, behind a school’s own login, visible only to the roles a school grants.
How the money works, honestly
The home base, the single sign-on, the shared roster, and role-based access are part of the free core. There is no per-seat charge just to sign in, and no paywall on reaching the tools a school already runs.
This page takes no payment and runs no checkout. The fuller picture of how the platform earns — an early-access picture-day store families can buy from, with payouts to each party’s own account — belongs to the flagship and the picture-day pages, not to a sign-in hub.
What is live, and what is early access
The home base, single sign-on, shared roster, and role-based access are running today. The per-school dashboard is still opening up, and this page keeps the line between them honest.
Live today
The unified home base, single sign-on, the shared roster, and role-based access all run on the platform right now — a staff member can sign in and reach every part of the platform behind one login today.
Early access: a customizable per-school dashboard
A dashboard view a school can tailor to what its own staff needs to see first. Built, opening gradually, not generally available yet.
How we label it
If a capability is early access, this page says early access — not “coming soon” theater. A school should never plan around a promise it cannot see.
Common questions
What exactly is the home base?
One sign-in that reaches the roster, the directory, the publications, picture day, and the fundraisers — all built on the same shared roster, so a school is not keeping separate logins and separate copies of the same list for each piece of the year.
Who can see what?
Access is role-based. A teacher, an adviser, and the front office each see what their own role allows through the home base, and nothing they should not. Access is granted by role, not open by default.
Is a student's private information exposed by the home base?
No. Student records and family contacts reached through the home base are private, access is controlled by role, and they are never sold and never handed to an outside company.
Is the per-school dashboard live?
Not yet. It is in early access — built, opening gradually, not generally available. Today, a staff member reaches every part of the platform through the standard home base, not a customized dashboard.
How is this different from homeroom.software?
Same platform, different first question. homeroom.software leads with what the platform does across publications, records, the directory, and picture day. Homeroom Center leads with the operational question: where do I sign in, and does everything share one list?
How is this different from homeroom.directory?
homeroom.directory is the people directory itself — students, staff, and families, and who is allowed to see them. Homeroom Center is the wider home base that directory sits inside: the one sign-in and shared roster the directory, and every other tool, is built on.
Does it cost anything to use the home base?
No. The unified home base, single sign-on, the shared roster, and role-based access are part of the free core — no per-seat charge just to sign in, and no checkout on this page.
What this page is and is not claiming
Homeroom Center is the real, operational home base of the platform: one sign-in, one shared roster, and every part of the platform a click away. The unified home base, single sign-on, the shared roster, and role-based access are live today. A customizable per-school dashboard is in early access — not live, and this page never implies otherwise. Access through the home base is role-based: a teacher, an adviser, and the front office each see what their own role allows, and student records and family contacts reached through it are never sold and never handed to an outside company. There is no sample roster row, no mock name, and no fabricated dashboard screenshot rendered on this marketing page. This is a for-profit vendor, not a charity, and nothing here is dressed up as a charitable gift. There are no invented adoption stats or testimonials here, and no competitor is named. The core is free to start, and this page runs no checkout.
