Because Accountability Matters
With eSchoolData NexGen, you can be sure that the data you are analyzing is the exact same data being reported to the state for accountability purposes. After all, what good is a fancy report if it is based on flawed data?
Because K12 Student Management is Not Child's Play
With eSchoolData NexGen, you have the power of a true enterprise grade system. As State and Federal reporting mandates change, business logic is instantly updated within the core system. The stakes are too high to expect schools to capture critical data in user defined fields and/or to rely on external data transformations to produce accountability reports. With NexGen, data validation rules are embedded into the system at the State level, thus precision data is the rule, not the exception.
Because Interoperability Matters
With eSchoolData Nexgen, you have a commitment to interoperability even beyond the scope of the Schools Interoperability Framework (SIF). We respect the fact that schools may not have access to a Zone Integration Server (ZIS) or may utilize homegrown systems and/or third-party products that are not yet SIF enabled. Because eSchoolData NexGen is built on a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), we can easily provide the data you need.

We offer frozen, fully-cooked varieties that are easy to prepare and serve. With the flexibility of our packaging equipment, products are available in both retail and bulk packaging formats, from pouches to cartons. We have extensive experience in private labeling and food service sectors.
