RIDGELAND, Miss., July 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- SchoolStatus, a leader in K-12 data and communications, achieved new business milestones that demonstrate strong company momentum in the first half of 2023 and growing excitement about its solutions from educators and administrators across the country.
