Independent School Application Research — For parents spending $40–80K/year on private schools. Data-driven decision support: academic outcomes, teacher turnover, student-teacher ratios, curriculum innovation, and cultural fit. Research service for K-12 school evaluation.
A research service for parents evaluating private K-12 schools. Parents input their top 5 school choices and the agent produces comprehensive comparison reports: academic outcomes (SAT/ACT averages, college placement rates), teacher turnover rates, student-teacher ratios, curriculum innovation, special program offerings, and cultural fit analysis. For $199–499 per comparison, parents get data-backed confidence in a decision that shapes their child's future.
Agent compiles: SAT/ACT averages, AP exam pass rates, college placement rates (where graduates go), Valedictorian/Salutatorian tracking, graduation rates, and any public academic achievements. Sources: school websites, state Department of Education databases, Niche.com, GreatSchools.org, and news archives.
Agent researches: average teacher tenure, turnover rates (publicly available via state databases), teacher credential patterns (advanced degrees, certifications), and any published teacher recognition or awards. High turnover = unstable environment for children.
Agent compiles: student-teacher ratios by grade, average class sizes by subject, special class offerings (lab sizes, art studio, etc.). This is often listed on school websites but never in marketing materials prominently.
Agent evaluates: STEM programs, arts programs, language offerings, experiential learning (field trips, externships), teaching methodology (Montessori, IB, project-based), and any published curriculum innovations or awards.
Agent synthesizes: parent reviews from multiple sources (Niche, Google, Facebook groups), student testimonials, school values and mission alignment with family priorities, and community feedback patterns. This is qualitative data — synthesized by AI into a cultural fit scorecard.
Extends to summer programs: sleepaway camps, academic intensives, pre-college programs. Same methodology applied to summer options — increasingly competitive and expensive.
Parents contribute admissions outcomes (where kids got in, waitlisted, rejected) to an anonymized database. Schools pay for this data to understand their competitive positioning. Creates a network effect: more parents = better data = better reports.
